Under the Moon, high in the Northern sky
The Rowan stands with talons reaching high
Under the Moon, high in the Northern sky
Swing the men of humankind, the place they come to die
Dance daughters, make the ring
Dance daughters, laugh and sing
Dance for all the corpses' souls
Dance for flesh that feed the crows
Suicide they did not deem
Yet compelled to come, despite
Unwilling victims, they help themselves
Dying by their own hand tonight
Under the moon, high in the Northern sky
The rowan stands with talons reaching high
Under the moon, high in the Northern sky
Swing they in the place they come to die
To die....
Split by lightning, broken, torn
Stands the rowan in mourn'
Weeping softly tears of blood
Playing host to souls forlorn
Under the moon, high in the Northern sky
Where the broken tree weeps
Under the moon, high in the Northern sky
Where the dead men come to sleep
Under the moon, high in the Northern sky
The rowan stands with talons reaching high
Under the moon, high in the Northern sky
Swing they in the place they come to die
To die....
Dance daughters, make the ring
Dance daughters, laugh and sing
Dance for all the corpses' souls
Dance for flesh that feed the crows
