Hymn to the Night-Mare

[Verse 1]
If I see her again, I must die or kill
In the bleak, dark wood, on the stone-ringed hill
When the year wears down and the trees are bare
In the form of an upright, white-fanged mare
For where she appears, Death is on the air
And someone in sight must die

[Verse 2]
Have you seen her again in the dark and cold?
The night-black mare and her grim nine-fold
With her thigh-bone staff and her white skull-globe
In her cyclone-crown and her storm-cloud-robе
With her red-black eyеs that no light can probe
When more than a few must die

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
We will see her again when the earth shall cry
When the hills fall down and the seas run high
She will strike her hoof on the earthquake-fault
With her twelve limbs bared to the heavens' vault
She will dance in flame 'till the stars cry halt
And all but a few shall die
And all but a few shall die
