Brother of the Moonlight

Some hearts are heavy with sorrow they bear And mead in my belly brings warmth to the chill For now my dear friend, on that stone met his will For if I were a stream, I'd gently flow by And caress every rock where my dear friend did lie Through the valleys so green, where we once used to roam Raise a toast to the sky, for the soul that has flown In the silence of woods, where our laughter once soared His memory lives on, as our hearts hold him tight Like the whispers of leaves, in the cool autumn light [Chorus] So here's to the lad, with a spirit so bold May his tales be retold, and his honor stay gold Hoist your horns with the mead, let it flow like our tears Say farewell to the brave, gone from this world's fears Gather 'round the fire's glow, share stories of might For he danced with the winds, neath the moon's silver light In the heart of the forest, where secrets are kept We remember our brother, in the earth where he's slept
