Once a place of faerie law lore
Greenwood home for wolf and boar
A pagan place, lost days of old
Witches tales will be forever told
Oh Pendle hill, a brooding site
Majestic on a full moon night
Rising dark from mists below
Looming in the silver afterglow
(Whistle)
Standing still on pendle hill cruel the wind, October chill
The frigid breeze shall freeze your bones
And on the wind you’ll hear the crone.
Come now walk the magic hill
And feel the way how time stands still
Liminal time, twilight and dawn
And then await a new day is born
As sure there was the wolf and deer
Your children’s thriving far and near
Your mystery still in the land and the waters
Strong in the veins of your sons and daughters
(whistle)
Oh Lancashire the world knows well
Your sad and darker tales to tell
But there she is, still standing proud
Shrouded in the mist and the cloud
Once a place of faerie law lore
Greenwood home for wolf and boar
A pagan place, lost days of old
Witches tales will be forever told
