I  stood upon the balcony  with my brand new  bride.
The  clink of bells came  drifting down the mountainside.
Within  our sight, something  moved  lightning eyed and cloven  hoofed.
The  great god Pan  is alive.
He  moves amid the  modern world in  disguise.
It’s  possible to  look into his immortal  eyes.
He's  like a man you'd meet  anyplace, until  you recognize that  ancient face.
The  great god Pan  is alive.
At  sea on a ship in a thunderstorm.
On  the very night that Christ  was born.
A  sailor heard from overhead  a mighty  voice that cried, "Pan  is dead."
So  follow Christ as  best you can, Pan  is dead. Long live Pan.
From  the olden days,  and up to  all the years.
From  Arcadia to the  stone fields  of Inisheer.
Some  say the gods are just a  myth, but guess  who I've been dancing  with?
The  great god Pan  is alive.
