The Queen of Earth and Sky

“The Queen of Earth and Sky”
words and music by Lady Isadora
©1990, 2010

I am a huntress of the heart
My songs like arrows fly
I am a minstrel to the Queen
Of all the Earth and Sky

Through many lifetimes I have been
Her faithful troubadour
At each rebirth She calls my name
And asks for my encore

No queen there is who ever reigned
In splendor more than She
For the bright palace where She dwells
Is all Eternity

With a hey-nonny-nonny
And a down-derry-down
I'll sing both night and day

There is a place my Queen has blessed
In truth I love it well
The rose and shamrock there are seen*
The daffodil and bluebell**

The sacred oak and ash and thorn
Guard well that garden fair
And all the wildflowers of my dreams
Have root and sustenance there

O Britain, mother of my soul
My heart and hand for thee
With joyful voice thy daughter bard
Proclaims thy majesty

With a hey-nonny-nonny
And a down-derry-down
I'll sing both night and day

Kin Arthur sleeps in Avalon
But he is not alone
Queen Guenevere shall with him rise
To claim Her ancient throne

It is for Her my praises ring
And shall until I die
And when I return I still will sing
For the Queen of Earth and Sky

* England and Ireland; ** Wales and Scotland
