Pagan Drums
by Nathaviel
Age Group: Adult
**The idea here is that it goes with the beat of the drums, and in each stanza the beat increases.
Around the fire, the pagan drums, the pagan drums, the pagan drums...
Around the fire the pagan drums
We beat them as we dance.
Hear the drums, the pagan drums.
We dance within a trance.
Oh the gods of old we praise, we praise, we praise, we praise, we praise.
Oh the gods of old we praise.
We praise them as we dance.
Oh the gods of old we praise.
We praise them in our trance.
The names of old, of old, we speak, we speak, we speak, we speak, we speak.
The names of old we speak, we speak.
We speak them in our trance.
The names of old, of old, we speak.
We speak them as we dance.
Oh the sound of pagan drums, of pagan drums, of pagan drums...
Hear the sound of pagan drums.
They lead us as we dance.
To drums, to drums, to drums, to drums….
We dance within a trance.
Oh the cone is raised, is raised…the cone is raised, is raised, is raised.
The cone is raised; the gods we praise.
We praise them as we dance.
The cone is raised; the gods we praise…
We dance within a trance.
The drums they beat, they beat, they beat, they beat, they beat, they beat, they beat..
The drums they beat, they beat, they beat.
They beat, and so we dance.
The pagan drums they beat, they beat…
We beat them in our trance.
Oh the cone erupts, erupts, erupts, erupts…the cone erupts.
Oh as the cone erupts, erupts,
We fall in circles round.
No more the sound of pagan drums…
We fall onto the ground.
