Silvanite / Songs

These are a few of the songs contained within the church of Silvanus' library. The collective works of the library are known as Silvanlore and they touch on many aspects of nature, the weather, and the sea.

The actual divine scriptures of Silvanus are available separately.

Tapping your fingers on the Unknown Gypsy rune
brings forth Thalia the Ecologue Nightingale
to sing...


  In days gone by, when the world was much younger,
men wondered at Spring, born of winter's cold night;
wondering at the games of the moon and the sunlight.
They saw there the Lady and Lord of all life.

And around and around and around turns the good earth.
All things must change as the seasons go by.
We are the children of the Lord and the Lady
whose mysteries we know, but we never know why.

In all lands the people were tied to the good earth
Plowing and sowing as the seasons declared.
Waiting to reap of the rich golden harvest,
knowing His laugh in the joys that they shared.

And around and around and around turns the good earth.
All things must change as the seasons go by.
We are the children of the Lord and the Lady
whose mysteries we know, but we never know why.

And we who reach for the stars in the heavens,
turning our eyes from the meadows and groves
still live in the love of the Lord and the Lady.
The greater the circle, the more the love grows.

And around and around and around turns the good earth.
All things must change as the seasons go by.
We are the children of the Lord and the Lady
whose mysteries we know, but we never know why.
