Fair Folk

The fair folk dance
 The fair folk sing
 The fair folk step in the magic ring
 Tread not here 'til the light of day
 Or the fair folk steal your soul away
 Gold and silver shine all 'round
 In a thousand lights on the dancing ground
 Oh come not here at the fall of night
 Where the fair folk dance in the waning light
 Tall and proud and wondrous fair
 The people of the dark and air
 Hold high the iron that they fear
 When the fair folk call, don't let them near
 In the hollow hills the old ones throng
 And click their bones to the ceilidh's song
 The banshee wails in the darkling night
 The fair folk dance 'til the morning light
 The fair folk dance
 The fair folk sing
 The fair folk step in the magic ring
 Tread not here 'til the light of day
 Or the fair folk steal your soul away
 Seven years spent out of time
 And all is lost that once was mine
 I tarried once and listened long
 To the echoes of the fair folk's song
 The fair folk dance
 The fair folk sing
 The fair folk step in the magic ring
 Tread not here 'til the light of day
 Or the fair folk steal your soul away
