[Verse 1] Through the forest, through the vale, Riders whisper, cold winds wail, Antlers crown the shadowed night, Hooves are thundering out of sight. [Pre-Chorus] Hark! the horns, the ghostly cries, Echo fierce across the skies… [Chorus] Ride, ride, the Hunt takes flight, Through the storm and through the night, Follow fast or hide in fright, Hear the Wild Hunt’s call! [Verse 2] Eyes like embers, steeds of flame, Calling every mortal’s name, Once you hear the hounds draw near, There’s no refuge, only fear. [Pre-Chorus] Hark! the horns, the ghostly cries, Echo fierce across the skies… [Chorus] Ride, ride, the Hunt takes flight, Through the storm and through the night, Follow fast or hide in fright, Hear the Wild Hunt’s call! [Bridge (chanting, layered)] Gallop, gallop, oaken trees bend, No beginning, never end. Spirits fly where mortals fall, None escape the Hunt’s grim thrall! [Final Chorus (crescendo, then fade)] Ride, ride, the Hunt takes flight, Through the storm and through the night, Follow fast or hide in fright, Hear the Wild Hunt’s call… Hear the Wild Hunt’s call…
