-- | LYRICS |--

Feel my conjury
Bring him back to me
Stars be realigned
Spirit of the fire
Waken his desire
Cast my dark spellbind

Stoke the fire for the cauldron
Make him love me
Add the hemlock and his pretty lock of hair
Add the wings of a young crow
To fly him to my door
And bind him to my side forever more

Add the willow and the salt
To make him miss me
Give him eagerness for me and me alone
Sprinkle in some poppy seed
To charm all of his dreams
To dream of only me and nothing more

Feel my conjury
Bring him back to me
Stars be realigned
Spirit of the fire
Waken his desire
Cast my dark spellbind
My dark spellbind

Add the teeth of the wolf
To make him hungry
Make him ravenous with lust he can’t subdue
Mix two drops of virgins blood
To make him burn with love
And stir it by the light of silver moon

Add the embers of the fire
Till he’s burning
Add the webbing of the spider
Snare him tight!
Conjure him into my arms
To never be apart
For without him is never ending night

Will this conjury
Heal the pain in me?
Or am I mad?
Desperate for the light
Have I lost my mind?

Have I gone mad?
Have I gone mad?
His love is all the good I had
And now he’s gone I’m bad

Feel my conjury
Bring him back to me
(Have I gone mad
Have I gone mad? )
Spirit of the fire
Waken his desire
(Have I gone mad?
Have I gone mad? )
Feel my conjury
Bring him back to me
(Have I gone mad
Have I gone mad? )
Spirit of the fire
Waken his desire

Plottwist this isnt actually a song but just a witch who really wanted to share her recipe for a love potion.

[quinleyadventureawaits]

I love the whimsical feeling of this song. And all the ingredients of the potion that are included in the lyrics. 💕

[Montaniaxworld]

there is something about the music in this song that reminds me of "poor unfortunate souls" from the little mermaid :) love it <3

[RosemaryMoonriseMusic]

I love the ever-growing urgency of this piece! The palpable desperation amplified by Roxane's spellbinding strings. I can almost glimpse your barely lit face above the bubbling cauldron, love it!

[sharmsong]

The strings on this one are divine! Just add that perfect touch to accentuate the story of your lyrics 🤎

[Trippycat]

Part 2 of this song should be an older woman who casts a spell to rid/cure herself of love for him or any unworthy man.

[marcusvinicius]

I love how you portrait witches in your songs, its truly a masterpiece.

[elenak.]

This one is the champ of the album in my book. The lyrics and the performance are just giving all the wonderfully twisted and ominously unstable vibes I'm looking for in a witchy song. The plot thickens!

[madetsy]

I love this song, this is my favourite of the album and after many months of listening I just realised that the lyrics rythm is similar to "Poor unfortunate soul" the Ursula's songs, not exactly the same of course but a little reminder of it and I find that fascinating if done on purpose!

[RoxaneGenot]

Ah, my absolute favorite of this wonderful album... I can't even express how much it means to me to have had a slight part in this gorgeous creation of yours. Thank you so much for the gift of your musicianship and witchy soul. :)

[RibbonRoulette]

The beautiful art, the whimsically dark lyrics, the excellent performance?? All the elements work so well together, and come together to make some truly refreshing music. Everyone involved did such a great job!

[tristonkent]

Used this song's lyrics to have a character I have on ESO brew dark love potions for profit. Thank you so much for this song, it really gives that cruelness on how love potions are really.

[masoudahmad]

The harpy of YouTube Will enchant you with its mistic voice make you glued and listen while your mind wonder in a world were mith and legend rome free

[christinaconway]

Definitely "Poor Unfortunate Souls" vibes and loving it!

[abelwill]

This song feels like she is doing more then simply making him love her. I see her performing a resurrection that doesnt work in the way she wants. Emotions play a major part in magic, her madness brings forth a beast. A poetic cautionary tale if you will.

Sinta meu conjúrio
Feel my conjury

Traga-o de volta para mim
Bring him back to me

Estrelas sejam realinhadas
Stars be realigned

Espírito do fogo
Spirit of the fire

Desperte seu desejo
Waken his desire

Lance meu feitiço sombrio
Cast my dark spellbind
Acenda o fogo para o caldeirão
Stoke the fire for the cauldron

Faça ele me amar
Make him love me

Adicione a cicuta e sua linda mecha de cabelo
Add the hemlock and his pretty lock of hair

Adicione as asas de um jovem corvo
Add the wings of a young crow

Para levá-lo até minha porta
To fly him to my door

E prendê-lo ao meu lado para sempre
And bind him to my side forever more
Adicione o salgueiro e o sal
Add the willow and the salt

Para fazê-lo sentir minha falta
To make him miss me

Dê-lhe ânsia por mim e só por mim
Give him eagerness for me and me alone

Polvilhe com um pouco de semente de papoula
Sprinkle in some poppy seed

Para encantar todos os seus sonhos
To charm all of his dreams

Sonhar só comigo e nada mais
To dream of only me and nothing more
Sinta meu conjúrio
Feel my conjury

Traga-o de volta para mim
Bring him back to me

Estrelas sejam realinhadas
Stars be realigned

Espírito do fogo
Spirit of the fire

Desperte seu desejo
Waken his desire

Lance meu feitiço sombrio
Cast my dark spellbind

Meu feitiço sombrio
My dark spellbind
Adicione os dentes do lobo
Add the teeth of the wolf

Para deixá-lo com fome
To make him hungry

Deixe-o faminto de luxúria que ele não consegue subjugar
Make him ravenous with lust he can’t subdue

Misture duas gotas de sangue virgem
Mix two drops of virgins blood

Para fazê-lo queimar de amor
To make him burn with love

E mexa à luz da lua prateada
And stir it by the light of silver moon
Adicione as brasas do fogo
Add the embers of the fire

Até que ele esteja queimando
Till he’s burning

Adicione a teia da aranha
Add the webbing of the spider

Prenda-o com força!
Snare him tight!

Conjure-o em meus braços
Conjure him into my arms

Para nunca se separar
To never be apart

Pois sem ele a noite nunca acaba
For without him is never ending night
Será que esta conjuração
Will this conjury

Curar a dor em mim?
Heal the pain in me?

Ou estou louco?
Or am I mad?

Desesperado pela luz
Desperate for the light

Eu perdi a cabeça?
Have I lost my mind?
Enlouqueci?
Have I gone mad?

Enlouqueci?
Have I gone mad?

Seu amor é tudo de bom que eu tive
His love is all the good I had

E agora ele se foi, estou mal
And now he’s gone I’m bad
Sinta meu conjúrio
Feel my conjury

Traga-o de volta para mim
Bring him back to me

(Enlouqueci
(Have I gone mad

Enlouqueci?
Have I gone mad?

)
)

Espírito do fogo
Spirit of the fire

Desperte seu desejo
Waken his desire

(Enlouqueci?
(Have I gone mad?

Enlouqueci?
Have I gone mad?

)
)

Sinta meu conjúrio
Feel my conjury

Traga-o de volta para mim
Bring him back to me

(Enlouqueci
(Have I gone mad

Enlouqueci?
Have I gone mad?

)
)

Espírito do fogo
Spirit of the fire

Desperte seu desejo
Waken his desire
