The Seven
Ein Lied über Lady Stark, einen Charakter in Game of Thrones. Die Strophen beziehen sich auf eine Szene in Kapitel 33 von "A Clash of Kings", in der sie zu den Sieben betet. Der rockige Abschluss enthält Spoiler auf ihre spätere Geschichte.
Geschrieben wurde das Lied 2015 für mein Rick'n'Rill-Set auf der Filkcontinental - großartig mit echten Blockflöten im Intro!
The Seven
Original: Stairway to Heaven (Led Zeppelin)

Warning: contains Game of Throne spoilers
There’s a lady not sure if it’s true what they told.
And she’s praying for help to the Seven.
When she gets there she knows, as the Septa is closed
How to pray in the words of her childhood.
Ooh-ooh-hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
And she's praying for help to the Seven
There are signs on the walls, charcoal drawings of god,
cause she knows that God has seven faces
There’s a tree by the brook, where the Old Gods have eyes,
sometimes all of her thoughts are misgiven
Ooh, it makes her wonder. Ooh, it makes her wonder
There’s feeling she gets when the looks to the west
and her spirit is crying for leaving
In her thoughts she has seen, death and blood through the trees
And the voices of love that have warned her
Ooh, it makes her wonder. Ooh, really makes her wonder
And it's whispered that soon, if we all know the runes
that the long lasting summer is over
And a new day will dawn, icy evil will spawn.
And the north knows that winter is coming
Oh-whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa-ho-oh
Prays to the mother for her sons, she is alarmed now
A vision comes, she sees the High Queen
Yes, there’s are dark path that she goes by but in the long run
The Queen’s a mother who fights for her son
And it makes her wonder. Oh-oh-ho
Her head is humming, and her eyes burn - and then she does know
The wicked secret of the boy king
Her husband, and good friends have found out - they are dead know
And little Bran will never walk again
And as she winds on down the road
Her shadows taller than her soul
There walks a lady we all know
Who went to death, her heart is stone
She puts her hand on open wounds
You have to listen very hard
And vengeance comes to her at last
When all is lost, then kill them all
She is a rock and that’s the toll
And she's praying for help to the Seven
