Kathy Mar - Shai Hulud lyrics

© 19?? Kathy Mar Reference: 'Dune', Frank Herbert Chorus: Shai Hulud, send me a great worm, send me the courage to ride it well Shai Hulud, send me way to change the nightmare that Spice foretells Shai Hulud, give me a new way, and vengeance for all who died Shai Hulud, give me worm to ride My homeworld was a water dream that I had left behind Arrakis and the Spice had filled the corners of my mind My mother was beside me, Father's ring was in my hand I started up the drumming and we crossed the desert sand I learned the ways of Fremen, and I taught them mine as well We trained an army twice as fierce as any spawned in Hell I had to prove my manhood if I wished to hold command So I started up the drumming and I waited, hook in hand Chorus I've drunk the Maker's waters, and I've searched each future path And nothing in those visions can prevent the days of wrath So I gather up the army for a final bloody stand And we start the thumper drumming, and we ride across the sand The tales and songs will live beyond the ending of my days But all that I have felt and loved will pa** too soon away I'll walk into my future knowing every step by heart And none will ever guess how much I dread to play my part Chorus
