In the forest glade I laid me down to sleep a while And there beneath a fine oak tree I dreamed the strangest dream Strange dance, strange night A demon came to me
Come the morning light I woke to find I was with child A boy was born, he laughs, he sings And I look on in awe Strange dance, strange dawn The oak tree was no more
Will he be full of love Or will he pave the devil's way Caressing me with his golden eyes The spell is cast, I have no say Strange dance, strange tale Merlin was born on a summer's day Merlin was born today
