Bean-allaidh Airgid (Silver She-Wolf)

[Verse 1] In the glen where the moonlight settles, There walks a silver-hearted maid. Silver hair to her slender ankles, Silver tears that never fade. Silver blood beneath her pale skin, Silver light upon her brow. All who see her call her lovely, None ask why she grieves somehow. [Chorus] Oh, Bean-allaidh Airgid, Silver pelt and silver eyes. Every hand reaches for the moonlight, None can bear the dawn inside. She gives her heart like running water, Pours it out till nothing's left. They love the shine, they love the wonder, Leave the girl behind bereft. [Verse 2] She has laid her heart in soft hands, Placed it gently, piece by piece. Built her home in others' gardens, Begged their restless storms for peace. Yet they kissed her silver fingers, Praised the beauty of her face. Never learned the songs she carried, Never held her quiet aches. [Chorus] Oh, Bean-allaidh Airgid, Silver pelt and silver eyes. Every hand reaches for the moonlight, None can bear the dawn inside. She gives her heart like running water, Pours it out till nothing's left. They love the shine, they love the wonder, Leave the girl behind bereft. [Bridge] And if you strip away the silver, Wash the moonlight from her skin, You would find a tired young woman Still believing love can win. Though she's bled for every stranger, Though she's broken more than whole, Still she opens empty hands And offers up her weary soul. [Final Chorus] Oh, Bean-allaidh Airgid, Silver blood and silver mane. Girl who gave and gave forever, Till there was nothing left to drain. Silver pelt and shattered spirit, Moonlit child beneath the stars. If you seek the light she carries, Love the girl beneath her scars. [Outro] In the glen where the moonlight settles, A silver she-wolf walks alone. Still her heart remains unguarded, Still she searches for her home.
