Raven mares a-galloped quickly forth
Raven mares a-galloped quickly forth Buried lay in manes of darkness dreams Tearing sleep apart at all its seams Went they far, across the skies so swarth
Raven mares a-galloped boldly forth Crossing skies and boundless land below Dreams and kindled visions for to show From the south, toward the frozen north
Raven mares a-galloped quickly forth Hearing all of all the children's plight Took they on the name and role of "night" Went they far, across the skies so swarth
Raven mares a-galloped boldly forth Taking dreams of children still in pain Giving them to those who still are vain From the south, toward the frozen north
Black horses ran quickly forward Hidden in their dark hair were dreams Ripping sleep apart at its seams They traveled far, across the dark skies
Black horses ran boldly forward Crossing skies and endless land below Showing dreams and visions From the south, toward the cold north
Black horses ran quickly forward Hearing all the children's suffering They took on the name and role of "night" They traveled far, across the dark skies
Black horses ran boldly forward Taking dreams of children still suffering Giving them to those who are still proud From the south, toward the cold north
