The Birds of Rhiannon
Title: The Birds of Rhiannon’s Song (Cân Adar Rhiannon). Create a Welsh symphonic Celtic metal anthem with nursery-rhyme beauty. Vocals: Welsh children’s choir of both boys and girls angelic, childlike, powerful, and harmonized throughout the entire song, all with authentic Welsh tone. Intro and outro must be spoken softly by the whole children’s choir in both Welsh and English. Style: symphonic metal with Celtic folk rock, using harp, crwth, pibgorn, whistles, bodhrán, guitars, double-kick drums, and magical synths imitating three enchanted birds (stereo left-right-center). Lyrics: about Adar Rhiannon, three birds of white, green, and gold feathers from Welsh mythology, whose voices awaken the dead or bring peace. Structure: spoken intro/outro, extended verses, layered choruses, choir chant bridge, instrumental interlude (music only, no singing), and majestic finale. End: final whisper “Adar Rhiannon…” then instruments and synths fade alone no vocal humming or repeats.

Lyrics
Intro – Spoken, Welsh Children’s Choir
(Welsh)
Clywch adar Rhiannon
Tri aderyn hudol, cân eu llais dros y byd
Yn wyn, yn wyrdd, ac yn aur
Yn dod o’r Byd Arall
Yn dwyn hud a goleuni tragwyddol.
(English)
Hear the birds of Rhiannon
Three enchanted voices, singing across the world
White, green, and gold they shine
Born of the Otherworld
Carrying magic, and eternal light.
Verse 1 – Choir
Three wings rise on silver air
Songs of dream and gentle prayer
White as truth, so pure, so bright
Shining stars in endless night
Green as spring, the heart’s delight
Fields reborn in morning light
Gold as dawn, the flame of day
Guiding all who lose their way
Voices high and voices clear
Songs that all the world can hear.
Chorus – Choir
Birds of Rhiannon sing
Magic voices on the wind
Through the skies their songs will flow
All the world will hear and know.
Verse 2 – Choir
From the shadows, dreams awake
Hearts grow strong, no fear to take
Whispered wings through branches bend
Songs that heal and songs that mend
Graves unseal at their command
Life returning to the land
Waters flow and flowers bloom
Banishing the silent gloom
Songs that cross the mortal veil
Carried on a silver gale.
Chorus – Choir
Birds of Rhiannon sing
Magic voices on the wind
Through the skies their songs will flow
All the world will hear and know.
Verse 3 – Choir, Majestic
Rhiannon crowned in silver flame
Cycles turn and call her name
Keeper of the endless sky
Her birds eternal, never die
Through their song the wheel will turn
Lessons deep the heart will learn
Crown of stars upon her brow
Through the ages, singing now
From the Otherworld they soar
Bringing light forevermore.
Bridge – Choir Chant, Call & Response
Adar Rhiannon! Adar y Nef
Birds of the heavens, voices of fate
Rise on the wind, awaken the world
Forever their song is heard.
Instrumental Interlude – Music Only
(Choir silent, instruments only.)
Verse 4 – Choir, Gentle & Nursery-like
Over seas of silver tide
They are guardians, they will guide
To the weary bringing peace
From all sorrow, sweet release
To the bold they give the flame
To the broken, strength again
Through the night their songs resound
Healing hearts where hope is found
Children’s laughter, echoes free
Joined in ancient melody.
Final Chorus – Full Choir, Majestic Harmony
Birds of Rhiannon rise
Sing the dawn into the skies
White as truth, and green as life
Gold eternal, ending strife
Birds of Rhiannon soar
Guide us to the Other Shore
Voices shining, never fall
Rhiannon’s gift to one and all.
Outro – Spoken, Welsh Children’s Choir
(Welsh)
Pan gân yr adar, mae’r byd yn cofio
Pan ddaw’r tawelwch, mae’r byd yn gorffwys
Yn eu cân mae’r cylch yn cau
Yn eu cân mae’r byd yn cael ei eni eto.
(English)
When the birds sing, the world remembers
When silence comes, the world finds rest
In their song, the circle closes
In their song, the world is born again.
