Lyrics Therion – Cú Chulainn
Text:
Tied on a stone, he’s born as hero
Died on his feet, he’s known forever
Born, with a halo of frenzy, you black-browed
Cú Chulainn, Cú Chulainn
Cú Chulainn
Still he stands where the raven lands
With Emer as his bride
Small and youthful, son of Lugh and Deichtine
{He} killed the guard-dog
Killed the monster of Culann
Yes, kill the monster of Culann in warp spasm
Cú Chulainn, snared by love
Mighty Cú Chulainn, only love makes you weak
{You} left your wife, fell for fand
Mighty Cú Chulainn, return to Emer
Drink the cup, wipe away
All the memories. You will ride to the dawn
Ride with Láeg, pass the sea
Bring your loyal wife, bring your ever true bride
Cú Chulainn, Cú Chulainn
Mighty Cú Chulainn, even death you defy
Cú Chulainn
Still he stands where the raven lands
With Emer as his bride
Legend of Cú Chulainn flies across the land
Like the spear of your fate
Cú Chulainn
Still he stands where the raven lands
With Emer as his bride.
Like the spear of your fate
