Wild Huntsmen

At night on the long road
In Halsteren there walked a man
Unaware of any evil
He encountered a gang

They asked him if he’d seen
Another man on this road
And as they came
They went again

Dazed and confused by fear
He got back on track
Realizing he met “de Bokkenrijders”
He resumed his path
And after a few minutes
He was back between robber rabble

"Did you see anyone?" they asked
"Jan Aarts’ men already passed" he replied

That being said
The ground beneath his feet vanished
And he hovered between heaven and earth

Sinners in the skies by nightfall
Men fear we’ll come down to the ground
To reap havoc - We’re wild hunters

"Forward!" roared a voice
"Forward! Over forest and field!"

Wild riders - Possessed by storm and urge
Swallowed by hell and spit back again
Yield for the Wild Huntsmen!
For the wild hunters!”

At last he stood back on solid ground
This time in Bokkenrijder country
"If you desire to be home soon
Take this rod firmly in thy hand"
He hesitated no longer
Flew high, and went back…
Into the dark of night!

Sinners in the skies by nightfall
Men fear we’ll come down to the ground
To reap havoc - We’re wild hunters
