lyrics

Dalle nebbie di Avalon
alle nebbie della mente
avea viaggiato
lo stregone senescente
nelle vene il ricordo
dell'antico potere
nella mente il timore di svanire.

La stessa gioventù
dopo averlo abbandonato
ben presto lo tradì
e fu fautrice del suo fato
nei panni di una donna
dal divino candore
il mago fu stregato al suo venire

Fu nella grotta di cristallo
ch'egli comprese il suo tranello
falso amore aveva offerto
allo stregone vecchio e stanco
Fu in quella gabbia di cristallo
che disse addio a questo mondo
il nobile figlio del falco
saggio e profeta verecondo

Dalle sue arti di donna
egli si lasciò circuire
le sue arti di mago
le permise di carpire
e quand'ella ebbe in pugno
tale nuovo potere
il mago stritolò tra le sue spire

Nell'antro scintillante
in cui conobbe l'avvenire
di regni ed eroi
e il destino del suo sire

rinchiuso in eterno,
sortilegio crudele
in un sonno destinato a non finire

Il suo regno però
tuttora vive

Eterne tenebre e rimpianti
ciò che resta di Myrddin
Fu mago e artefice di epoche
e a Camelot diede un Re!

Fu nella grotta di cristallo
ch'egli comprese il suo tranello
falso amore aveva offerto
allo stregone vecchio e stanco
Fu in quella gabbia di cristallo
che disse addio a questo mondo
il profeta, moribondo
