TALIESEN'S DREAM song lyrics
by Joel Sattler

based on a translation of CAD DODDEU
"The Battle of the Trees" by Taliesin

I have been an eagle
a boat on the sea
I have been a shield
much more than me

when the woods were waiting
to be something more than trees
they sang an old song
full of wind blown harmonies

I am Taliesen
and I sing for them
I sing of a dream
the forest is my friend

I dream
that I am a dream
and the dream that I am
is a dream of a dream of a dream

I have been a sword
I have been a raindrop
I have been a spear
a viper on a rock

I have been the fire
that in the lantern glows
I have been a word
that nobody knows

I dream
that I am a dream
and the dream that I am
is a dream of a dream of a dream

I had a thousand shapes
before this shape was formed
I had a thousand names
before this soul was born

I have dwelt in hills
in melodies of song
but I had no form
till Arthur came along

I dream
that I am a dream
and the dream that I am
is a dream of a dream of a dream
