Poetry: Love does not die

LAST OF THE GODODDIN

One year Din Eidyn, we did feast

Hopes to stop, approaching beast

To fight, for love to be

Safe in our hands, held free

And to win, one language true

That which was borne of you

Hear the song of wandering Maygar

Bourne of Uther, thro' Mathuthavar

Again Aneirin, jingling bard

Now let go your hearts, of ships hard

To die, with ancient secret kept

She of beauty, brave heart wept

Earthen goddess, one of seven

Truest warrior forged in Heaven

Now upon this battle field

Two of 300 left to yield

Stand together this final day

Foes bear down, upon them

Tenfold, by every way

Borne to fight and die

For each other, now they lie

Bloodied and weary at Catraeth

Hand in hand, our last embrace

Oh, as one

Down thrusts the Saxon blade

Thro' two hearts, now dragon made

Unleashed to protect his love

Now he carries her above

Far away from this plane

Keeping safe, to love again

Gently tending warrior's bow

Urging love and lifeblood flow

Holding sacred Queen alive

Feeding, for her love to thrive

Oh, eyes and touch of richest Earth

Borne to give finest warriors birth

Strong in battle in painted blue

Now you see 'tis always you

You of eternal beauty taste

Oh, to devour not in haste

Angel, do not fear love here

Open now, let go your tear

'Tis of a thousand warriors see

All in one, that is me

I hold you now for I am dove

Safe again, my arms

One love
