Of pagans we sing, to you and your kin.

Such a joyous sound!
Thor's hammer comes back to him
Thor's hammer comes back to him
Thor's hammer comes back to him
Whenever it's thrown
Odin has two friendly ravens
Odin has two friendly ravens
Odin has two friendly ravens
Called thought and mem'ry
Lord and Lady dance the circle
Lord and Lady dance the circle
Lord and Lady dance the circle
Throughout the year
Taliesin sings with bright brow

Taliesin sings with bright brow
About Arthur King

Of Lord Vishnu
Brigit swings her hammer

At her forge
Pan chases all the dryads

Pan chases all the dryads
And everyone else
Heracles' strength is mighty

Heracles' strength is mighty
He laboured twelve times
Hera's a jealous goddess

Married to Zeus
Achilles' arms were mighty
Achilles' arms were mighty
Achilles' arms were mighty
But his ankle was weak
Lugh excelled at everything

Lugh excelled at everything
With his long arm
Cuchulain met Morrigan
Cuchulain met Morrigan
Cuchulain met Morrigan
And tupped her but good
A Banshee's a lady
A Banshee's a lady
A Banshee's a lady
With a shrill piercing voice
This song could go on forever
This song could go on forever
This song could go on forever
Unless we stop here (1)
