《Ballad of the Weird Sisters》歌词

[00:00:00] Ballad of the Weird Sisters - Blood Ceremony

[00:00:28] Outside the city walls

[00:00:31] Where the darkest thickets grow

[00:00:33] Returning home from foreign lands

[00:00:37] We dreamt of our near homes

[00:00:40] When at once we heard a hissing

[00:00:43] Was it a devil or a snake

[00:00:46] Had we heard the sounds of laughter

[00:00:49] That dangerous women make

[00:00:58] Three hags our way stood staring

[00:01:01] They beckoned us their way

[00:01:04] We followed them along a hidden path

[00:01:07] Towards their dwelling place

[00:01:11] Inside a fire was burning

[00:01:14] And a table had been laid

[00:01:16] They offered us a strange brew

[00:01:19] With a devil of a taste

[00:02:04] My friend and I we had great thirst

[00:02:07] We drank our cups bone dry

[00:02:10] But stranger yet was the drink's effect

[00:02:13] "It's witchery" I cried

[00:02:16] Eye of newt and mandrake root

[00:02:19] The devil's foot in brine

[00:02:22] A fever dream took hold of me

[00:02:25] Souls danced before my eyes

[00:02:34] My treachery my wicked lusts

[00:02:37] The many stolen wives

[00:02:40] The souls of those whom I had wronged

[00:02:43] Shared tales of my past crimes

[00:02:46] Indeed I was not all alone

[00:02:49] To hear their strangled cries

[00:02:52] My fellow and these sisters

[00:02:55] Through this my guild surmised

[00:03:45] And lo I saw what must be done

[00:03:48] For the gallows called my name

[00:03:51] I'd cut its tongue under a demon sun

[00:03:54] Yea in good health I'd remain

[00:03:58] In a flash I drew my dagger

[00:04:01] And my fellow screamed with pain

[00:04:03] Then I turned upon the sisters

[00:04:06] To them I did the same

[00:04:10] At once the room it filled with blood

[00:04:13] And the horror of their cries

[00:04:15] This night a murder banquet

[00:04:18] A feast of ruined lives

[00:04:21] Possessed were they with fortune's gift

[00:04:24] And yet they were surprised

[00:04:27] Three sisters should have better known

[00:04:30] Than to let this devil inside
