Diana

Diana

She was a maiden tall and free
She was the moon, the cypress tree
She roamed the forest through the night
Protector of the woods, guardian of all that’s right

From her father all she asked –
Were six wishes would he grant?
A bow and arrows made of gold
A tunic white and pure
Mountains to behold

Diana Mistress of the hunt
Diana protector of the young
Diana, Lady of the Moon
Your many names and light forever be

She was a maiden tall and free
With her hound and stag were three
She roamed the forest through the night
With bow & arrows made of gold
Goddess of the moon & night

60 daughters 9 years old
Nymphs to guard her hound & bow
Remain a virgin evermore
Ease the pain while women birth
Bringer of the light to earth

Diana Mistress of the hunt
Diana protector of the young
Diana, Lady of the Moon
Your many names and light forever be

Diana Mistress of the hunt
Diana protector of the young
Diana, Lady of the Moon
Your many names and light forever be
