The Price Lyrics

Welcome my little friends, welcome to our lands
This is where all things end and all begins
Here never comes the sun, neither should you have done
Toads you'll be from now on, my duckling prince

Taran:
All over Prydain we travelled on our quest
For the cauldron robbing dead men of eternal rest
Will you help us find it, will you speak the truth
Or must we seek even further with every move

Orddu:
You were sent by the one
We raised a foundling son
Therefore no harm be done to Arawn's foe
And should you wish to see Black Crochan come with me
You'll see eternity of pain and woe

Eilonwy:
Never have I felt my heart filled with so much fear
Never a thing of so much evil was made
Yet we need it and must take it away from here

Orddu:
We never give but you can trade
Taran:
Take my sword or my noble horse so good
Orddu:
For swords and horses we have no need
Gurgi:
Take Gurgi's bag, ever full of blood
Orddu:
Except we never eat
Eilonwy:
Take my ring or take my golden sphere
Orddu:
We have no need for toys and rings
Flewddur:
Take my harp, playing by itself, hear
Orddu:
Not as nice as birds sing
Taran:
This is all that remains in the end
Orddu:
What have you got oh let me see
Taran:
This brooch was forged by the first bard's hands
Orddu:
This looks suitable to me
Taran:
All from the start with us you did play
Orddu:
Does it make any difference
Taran:
So this is the price I will pay

Orddu:
Black Crochan is in your hands
There's one more thing to say, although to your dismay
There is only one way destroyed it'll be
With hammers, bars and chains all tries will be in vain
With blood the Crochan's stained eternally
One living person must sacrifice his own
And climb inside it to shatter the cauldron
Buying Black Crochan cost you but a brooch
Yet its destruction will cost a life for you
