MacRoth is Maeve's messanger. In this song he reflects on the events of

the Tain.



I once told her

Where she could find her dream.

And I still adore her,

No matter how it seems.

I saw our stars fall,

Crash without a sound.

Stars go crashing

Faster than the Hound.



I saw him sleeping

Alone beneath the sky.

I caught him weeping,

And I, for one, knew why.

I saw the ravens,

Black without a sound.

Ravens swirling

Faster than the Hound.



I travel Ireland in a day.

You just nod, I'm on my way.

I've golden wings upon my feet.

I seldom touch the ground.

The only thing I'm not

Is faster than the Hound.



Now I watch her leaving

With the light of people's dreams,

Ignorant of rainbows

In the trees where we have been.

Also there are ravens

High above the ground.

Ravens growing closer

Faster than the Hound
