She was a Rainbow Maiden
No Evil flickered in her eyes
It was written she had forsaken
To this I will not testify
When the wind brings the sound, the children gather round
They listen to her stories her tales of old
And I watch her from afar, an angel of my heart
A spirit pure both body and soul
A family wept with joy as she healed their dying boy
With a smile and a magic spell
And when her trial brought the tears, she said don’t cry for me
Know I only wish you well
She was a Rainbow Maiden
But she was tried as a witch of evil
She did not bring the devil’s fornication
She whispered and I believe her
When the wind brings the sound, the children gather round
They listen to her stories her tales of old
And I watch her from afar, an angel of my heart
A spirit pure both body and soul
A family wept with joy as she healed their dying boy
With a smile and a magic spell
And when her trial brought the tears, she said don’t cry for me
Know I only wish you well
She was a Rainbow Maiden
They tortured her she made no prayer or cry
She knew her soul it needed no saving
Her tears fell silently the flames rose high
When the wind brings the sound, the children gather round
They listen to her stories her tales of old
And I watch her from afar, an angel of my heart
A spirit pure both body and soul
A family wept with joy as she healed their dying boy
With a smile and a magic spell
And when her trial brought the tears, she said don’t cry for me
Know I only wish you well
