One moment just a woman,
her hair silver in the light,
the next her eyes as cold as ice,
but a shadow in the night.
wolf brothers at her side
to their death they shall abide
Howling to the moon,
the queen of the beast
bringing down the mighty stag
So all the wolves may feast
Her eyes that move the mountains,
her lips that guide the wind,
hair made from moonlight
and the fangs which she grinned
Spirit of the tundra
queen of the night
goddess of the wolves
keeper of the sight
The stars are her cloak,
and the night is her stage,
as silent as death,
as violent as rage.
She flies across the land
a perfect night scene
shadows cross the lonely moor
the wolves and their queen
