Absu - Manannг‚вўn

[Manann¡n's Notions from Emain Ablhach:]

I am a wave: on the rapt Cythr¡ul

I am a flood: across the croggy plain

I am a wind: of seven gales

I am a tear: the Sun lets fall



[Chorus I:]

I am

Manann¡n

Mac Lir

Noble warrior of lycanthropy

I am

Fachtna

High King

To shake thy cloak shall bring outbreak



I am a tide: that drags to engulfment

I am a current: a compass towards Visnech

I am a tempest: the onslaught of outburst

I am a zephyr: theirs is second pain



[Chorus II:]

I am Manann¡n

Mac Lir

Avatar from sail to sea

Thy horse

Aonbharr

Grand Steed

Chariots forever lead



I am an ocean's womb: of all abysms

I am a blaze: for every burning bathym

I am a lure: of the plumbless benthos

I am a breaker: bottomlessness doom



[Chorus III:]

I am

Manann¡n

Mac Lir

Shape-changer; Lar of deep

Thy sword

Fragarch

"The Answerer..."



[Bridge:]

Remember me, thou art all wind

And back with gusts thou shalt return



I'm the hawk: above this cliff, behind the waves

I'm the thorn: exude this rose, yet fleece the sky

...FLEECE THE SKY



I'm the hill: where poets walk and Tara lies

I'm the throne: from a tantalizing glimpse

...FROM A TANTALIZING GLIMPSE



[Repeat 4th & 5th Verse]



[Chorus IV:]

Hear the thunder roll

I am

Manann¡n,

And fear the sky shall fall [x5]



[Repeat Chorus IV]
