[00:00.00]The Middle Kingdom -Cruachan
[00:08.794]We who are old yet fair of face
[00:10.839]Thousands of years this world did grace
[00:12.959]Beneath the earth away from men
[00:14.984]Our Middle Kingdom it lies hidden
[00:25.708]With sword in hand and our shields by our sides
[00:28.84]We march in hoards we will never subside
[00:29.989]Our D Danann form has passed with time
[00:32.115]But still we love music and still we love wine
[00:42.886]We are of the forest we are of the earth
[00:45.122]Our heads full of knowledge our ways full of mirth
[00:47.52]We know all the answers to questions unasked
[00:49.203]We live in the light with no fear of the dark
[00:51.472]It must be said we have dark evil breeds
[00:53.593]Who plague mankind with their mischievous deeds
[00:55.646]The Phooka the Merrow the wailing Bean-shee
[00:57.930]Are hideous creatures as dark as can be
[01:17.134]Avoid the lone thorn tree that grows in the field
[01:19.349]Do not cut it down with the axe that you wield
[01:21.473]It coarses magic from branch to root
[01:23.560]And woe to he who eats its fruit
[01:25.810]Of itself the tree did grow
[01:27.866]From faerie magic cast long ago
[01:30.116]Therefore we bid you to let it stand
[01:32.307]Ill fortune to those who ignore our command
[01:51.708]We who are old
[01:53.676]We are revered born of the earth
[01:57.933]Immortal and feared
[03:42.323]In the dead of night see us dance on the hills
[03:44.628]On fiddles and flutes we play jigs and reels
[03:46.740]The sky is ablaze with a myriad of light
[03:48.736]Our faerie music is heard through the night
[03:51.104]We who are old yet fair of face
[03:53.224]Thousands of years this world did grace
[03:55.246]But modern man and his cynical ways
[03:57.299]Are bringing us to the end of our days
