The Dance of the Sword

(Ha Korol ar C'Hleze.)

Blood, wine, and glee,
Sun, to thee, —
Blood, wine, and glee!
Fire! fire! steel, Oh! steel!
Fire, fire! steel and fire!
Oak! oak, earth, and waves!
Waves, oak, earth and oak!

Glee of dance and song,
And battle-throng, —
Battle, dance, and song!
Fire! fire! steel, etc.

Let the sword blades swing
In a ring, —
Let the sword blades swing!
Fire! fire! steel, etc.

Song of the blue steel,
Death to feel, —
Song of the blue steel!
Fire! fire! steel, etc.

Fight, whereof the sword
Is the Lord, —
Fight of the fell sword!
Fire! fire! steel, etc.

Sword, thou mighty king
Of battle's ring, —
Sword thou mighty king!
Fire! fire! steel, etc.

With the rainbow's light
Be thou bright, —
With the rainbow's light!
Fire! fire! steel, Oh! steel!
Fire, fire! steel and fire!
Oak! oak, earth and waves!
Waves, oak, earth, and oak!
