Sleeping Giant Of Cribarth Lyrics

In the heart of Wales, neath the skysore glen Lies a giant asleep in the ancient land

Once a warrior bold, with a fire in mind Fought for mankind's peace through the darkest night

Oh, sleeping giant, in your stone embrace Guardian of tales of time and space

You're but a one in history's sight A crib of silhouette, neath the moonlight bright

Mountains whisper tales of his valiant fight Against foes that came in the cloak of night

With every step he took the earth would shake For mankind's very soul, his sword would wake

Oh, sleeping giant, in your stone embrace Guardian from the hills where children play

In dreams he fights the ancient fight A silent guardian through the endless night

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

The night should stay awake when need is dire To protect the air

From dragon's fire till then he sleeps The giant kind in crevice shadow

Peace we find Oh, sleeping giant

In your stone embrace Guarding from the hills Where children play

In dreams you fight The age you fight A silent guardian Through the endless night

So here he rests, the giant, brave and bold In Welsh Mountains High
