about

The Dark Grove on The Isle of Anglesey close by to a small brook has long been a place of worship for local Druids. In the centre of the chamber is a petrified tree sages and kings have made ritual here with buried oxen, drumming and song. Renewal at summer solstice as the sun hits the inside of the chamber is celebrated by The Anglesey Druids to this day.

lyrics

Bryn Celli Ddu - The Dark Grove

We talk of stone rings sages and kings

With guardians who will guide us

But how can I sing of the world and its kings

When always the past invades me

Hammered in snakes the landscape it makes

A message in stone imparted

Chorus

Yn Ynys Môn there's a tomb of kings

We have always known it was there

The dark grove of the land



The light of the shore brings pilgrims and more

With offerings and care worn faces

Full throated the prayers for a summer so fair

Will the gods of the land still hear them?

The brook close by gives freely her song

To a land bedecked in green

Chorus

Yn Ynys Môn there's a tomb of kings

We have always known it was there

The dark grove of the land



The oxen is led to shaman and blessed

Then laid on the ground before us

Dance round a fire, drum through the night

Till a chariot of light is pulled forth

Of Mage and sage drawing the threads of

The land that was so free

Chorus

Yn Ynys Môn there is a tomb of chiefs

We have always known it was there

The dark grove of the land



The Gorsedd close by lines rocks stones and sky

Hewn symbols repeat their message

So chant blessed be before a petrified tree

Remember the oaks will hear you

Keep an ear to the ground for a whisper or sound

For a vision of what might be

Chorus

On this magic land there is a tomb of kings

We have always known it was there

The dark grove of the land

We have always known it was there

The dark grove of the land (rep)
