remnant understanding - scáth na déithe lyrics

sheltered the gifts of old rest easy within
blessed knowledge, never fading, never silent
remnant understanding of those below, hidden only from denouncing forms
they waste away, spittle on the hearth
saving only curses for the healer, misplaced virtue and distrust
they waste away, spittle on the hearth
gatherings within, the blind without
echoes plainly to open ears, the ancient call of the bandroithe
envious, weary, saving suspicion only for the healer
they waste away, spittle on the hearth
life begun and grown from the coffin, life’s procession in funeral disguise
death a mystery to those below, death a border grown dim with time
so cry out denouncements, scornful decries of piety
shun, shame, sacrifice
spew virtue into ears long deaf, waste lifeless breath on desperate words
saving prayers against the healer
they waste away
they waste away
they waste away
spittle on the hearth

“mór mo náir;
mo chlann féinn a dhíol a máthair
mise éire;
uaigní mé ná an chailleach bhéarra”
