Still Brigantes Poem by Stephen Harris

Still Brigantes

Rating: 5.0


Prepare the horse and chariot
Paint your body blue with woad
And take your oaken battle shield
The quench hardened iron sword

Form lines of war and sound the horn
Gather all your kinsmen close
You druids call down heavens wrath
While the furies scream their woes

Our enemies are at the gates
No warrior bend the knee
They come to bind and make us slaves
Let us die among the free
