Maddy Prior - Queen and Sovereignty lyrics

Youth was an easy time Strength stiffened every rod Energy flowered and blessed our union My hair caught in his armour as we lay In stolen moments we have laughed together Fought together, danced and drank together I am his queen He lives in me His children grow in me Wild like the hazel tree I am the ground of his being This gold torque around my neck Glows in the gentle Spring light Bound down in silken bonds These wolfish Saxon bands Trapped in a cage of his making Our young British warriors Grow sheltered by His mighty shadow
