(A lone voice whispers)
I wish I could show you such magnificent things
Things
I've seen
Here in
The Great In-Between
Wonders
You have never witnessed before
But I'd have to go back on my pledge
A covenant
Made when I stood between twin guards
Perched on a high ledge
When I walked through a dark door
A sacred contract
So sacrosanct
That even to say the terms of the Vow
Would rupture this
Version of Now
For ultimate security is so rare
Yet when that pledge is made
As Brother Sun
Descends
Sealing lips
With wax from lit candle sticks
Arianrhod Goddess of the Moon and Stars
Lady Silver- Wheel
Commands
All that feel
To kneel
In her mystical fields
Of burning lanterns
Filled with yellow kerosene
To be exalted by her exquisite gifts
Porque benditos son aquellos
quien se aventura
De buena gana
en las tierras oscuras
de aventura
-------
(For blessed are those
Who venture
Willingly
Into The Darklands
Of Adventure)
----
For in those lands of fables and spectacular dreams
Souls
Young old
Or fair
In here
The Great In-Between
With sacred oath took
Carry her green and blue leather passport
Stamped with
Consort and Follower of The Great Silver-Wheel High Court
To anybody
And everywhere
And its why
I'm reading this to you
Using your voice
For us
Oath Sayers
Can cross all boundaries
Without permission
Or noise
Trying to tempt those
Curious
To make the same choice
Just whisper
3 times
Arianrhod
Goddess of the Moon and Stars
Lady Silver- Wheel
I pledge my allegiance
Forever to you
When I enter
The Great In-Between
So mote it be
And soon
You'll join me
To see the incredible things
I've seen
Just you wait and see
