Scena Prima (We Have Met Again...)

First witch

We have met again

At this ominous glade

We are here to find the answers

What shall be and what has passed

Second witch

To the east and to the south

Seething pot, mandrake and blood

Third witch

To the west and to the north

Henbane`s seed will show the truth

First witch

Time for peace or time for war?

Tempus odii, hour of scorn

Second witch

Smoke of pyres covers the land

Bloodstained flails in hussites hand

Third witch

Filthy blood has soaked this soil

First witch

Hellish charms – our wicked toil!

All three witches together

Paddock calls! Anon!

Cauldron boils, the battle`s lost and won

First witch

And among these wretched times

Knight is coming, brave young heart

Second witch

Restless contempt burns his soul

So he never rides alone

First witch

Poor lands! Cursed lands!

Second witch

Hunger, grief and evil seeds thrive!

Third witch

Listen sisters, we shall go…

To show this daring lad his path in the hour of storm

All three witches together

Faire is foule, and foule is faire

Hover through the fogge and filthie ayre

Straight to Mabon! Summer fades!

Day is night and night is day!
