Stars like torn necklace
Night dressed in black lace
Forests are quiet but shadows are deep
Whispers in willows
Cold are your pillows
Vortigern, Vortigern, why don’t you sleep?
Lake hiding thunder,
Cursed is that wonder:
Waters are cloudy with monsters beneath
Damned powermonger
Can make you stronger
Vortigern, Vortigern, sword with no sheath
Measure for measure:
Share what you treasure
Soul of a stranger makes no sacrifice
Brought your own daughter
Right to the slaughter
Vortigern, Vortigern, heart carved in ice
Skies frown when you frown
All Britons kneel down
But your pale forehead is crowned with a sin
Murders and tortures -
Bricks in your fortress
Vortigern, Vortigern, bring the night in
Grows your dark power
High is your tower
Scratch the black sky – and immortal you are.
Hasten o dear:
Vengeance is near
Vortigern, Vortigern, scream from afar
...
Blood is so crimson
What a sweet whimsy:
He who has killed you now kisses your hand.
Sunrise is near
Sleep now, o dear.
Vortigern, Vortigern, this is the end.
