about

What if the bitee folki from the Romani Gypsy tradition, or the Dryads from earlier cultural traditions rebelled against humans? The lyrics in this song explore this idea!

lyrics

There’s a stirring in the trees, a rustling of branches
Turmoil in the forests of the world, uprisings unseen.
From the bark, from the leaves, oldest, strangest forms appearing now
From the dark age of trees, the dryad rebellion has come

Choose your side, the dryad horns are calling
Come, prepare to fall down on your knees
Wide awake, the dryads are a-moving
See them walking on the forest paths, the dryad rebellion has come

Hear their singing in the trees, no longer a-sleeping
They are never what you think they’ll be: the nymphs long ago
Rising from, ancient worlds, doing what they’ve never done before
Oaks applaud, ash approves, the dryad rebellion has come

Repeat

Follow the horn

Make a woodland pact to put us there
Make - wake.
