The Piper
They came from the hillsAnd they came fromThe valleys and the plainsThey struggled in the coldIn the heat and the snowAnd in the rainCame to hear him playPlay their minds away
We're all following a strange melodyWe're all summoned by a tuneWe're following the piperAnd we dance beneath the moonWe're following the piperAnd we dance beneath the moon for himAnd we dance beneath the moon
Sub luna saltamus
They came from the southFrom the west and the northAnd from the eastThey waited for the manLike a parish is waitingFor the priestLonged to hear him playPlay their minds away
We're all following a strange melodyWe're all summoned by a tuneWe're following the piperAnd we dance beneath the moonWe're following the piperAnd we dance beneath the moon for himAnd we dance beneath the moon
Sub luna saltamus
He gave them a dreamHe seduced everybodyIn the landThe fire in his eyesAnd the fearWas a weaponIn his handSo they let him playPlay their minds away
We're all following a strange melodyWe're all summoned by a tuneWe're following the piperAnd we dance beneath the moonWe're following the piperAnd we dance beneath the moon for himAnd we dance beneath the moonAnd we dance beneath the moon
