The Tomb of The Eagles the Isbister chambered Cairn South Ronaldsay
Orkney fired me to go back in time and imagine the burial of one of the tribe. Eagles swooping, drinking from wassail bowls telling folklore and smashing the bowls near the sealed tomb. The legends carry on with the spoken word. Down the ages we will hold our truth.
lyrics
Tomb of The Eagles
Chorus
Eagles fly and talons tear I would go there at early light
Watch the Eagles fly, watch the Eagles fly
Eagles fly and talons tear I would go there at first light
Watch the Eagles fly, watch the Eagles fly
A sky burial site with beating wings of flight
We'll honour you and bury you in the ground
The stories of your life In our hearts they will remain
Long binding tales of blood as legends grow
Your tribe is here, we have gathered young and old
Down the ages we will hold our truth
Chorus Eagles fly and talons tear etc:
Verse
Dark winter night tales of mystery and Giants
Old Magick mixed with dreams by a flickering fire
Drink wassail bowls as the wind outside it howls
Strange sounds of ghosts and fae are the lore of this land.
Bridge
Your tribe is here,we have gathered young and old
Down the ages we will hold our truth
Chorus. Eagles fly and talons tear........
Spoken word
As the ocean crashed from shore to shore
The salt wind tearing at my body
I lifted my gaze to the sky and a familiar sound
I watched the sea eagles sour high rising on the wind
Swooping and diving.
In that moment my soul took flight
as It joined them in their daily play of life.
Wake and feasting done place the bones with long lost friends
Take sustenance for journey to the other worlds
Fired vessels smashed seal the entrance to that realm
Walk away near, crashing ocean shores
Your tribe is here we have gathered young and old
Down the ages we will hold our truth
Chorus
Eagles fly and talons tear I would go there early light
Watch the eagles fly, watch the eagles fly
Eagles fly talons tear I would go there at first light

Beautiful Pagan Folk music, that tells beautiful stories. You won't find many that do music like this any more. I also love the Celtic and Norse themes stormfay
