jessica law & marion leeper - battle song lyrics
[bradamante]
we sing of battles and kings
of love and the madness it brings
our tale begins, as it has done many times before
on the field of war
two lines assemble to fight
each side knows their reason is right
dictated by the fates and guided by god on high
let the war decide
[spoken: narrator]
in those far off days, when all europe was united as one, the great emperor charlemagne raised an army to fight off the invaders at his borders. people who spoke a different language, people who ate different food, people who wore funny trousers. the saracen army from over the ocean faced charlemagne’s paladins across the plain
[bradamante]
fresh blood darkens the ground
bones break with a sickening sound
but if you think that battle is the domain of men
better think again
[spoken: narrator]
but who’s this? in her white surcoat, it’s bradamante, daughter of duke aymon. bradamante was charlemagne’s bravest and truest knight. but she held back, looking to see where the battle was fiercest. then she was off, wading through the fray, confident as if she had a bodyguard of a thousand men behind her, though she rode alone
[bradamante]
white plume adrift in the wind
grey steel in the palm of my hand
a scarlet fire inside as outward i cast my eye
for a fight worth my time
[spoken: narrator]
and then she saw him: the hero of the saracens, ruggiero, racing down the hillside like a torrent down its bed. as the two met, it was like the clash of two lions in the field, like waves beating against a cliff, or lightning splitting a mountain top. they fought until they could hardly stand, until they could barely even lift their weapons
they agreed to stop and rest – that’s what chivalrous knights do. they found a valley stream where they could wash their wounds. each took off their helmet, not knowing what they would find in the other’s face. ruggiero was definitely not expecting cascading locks of shining hair: and bradamante never dreamt she would meet eyes like deep pools of clear water
[bradamante]
have i found an equal?
found a man whose power matches mine?
you boy, of all people
are the one i’d fight life’s battles by
what hand has set our love in motion
within this war?
love crosses battle lines and oceans
it senses more
[bradamante, overlapping]
have i found an equal?
what hand has set our love in motion
found a man whose power matches mine?
within this war?
you boy, of all people
love crosses battle lines and oceans
are the one i’d fight life’s battles by
it senses more
[spoken: narrator]
they gazed into each other’s eyes and it was as if_ as if they were walking in an enchanted forest for three days and three nights, exploring every shady path and lingering where hidden fountains bubbled from the rocks
then bradamante turned away. “we can’t love each other. we are enemies,” she said
“no, we can’t be together,” said ruggiero
“you would lose your lands, your wealth, your friends, if you came to be with me,” said bradamante
and ruggiero agreed. “you’d lose your family, your shining reputation.”
“we’d better part before it’s too late.”
and slowly, they turned and went back, each to their own camp. each of them buried their feelings deep inside, hidden forever _ or so they thought
