[MOC]Unlocking a mystery

Hi All,

Just a quick article -

This still perplexes me anyways Inis Mona the song
here is the lyrics of the song

Welcome to the land of questions
Welcome to the isle of lore
Where the veil came crumbling down

There it all began,
The germination
Unveiling a cryptic door
There it was revealed
Hopes and aspirations
Unclosing an enthralled door

Escalate the sense
Enhancing to join the dawn

I close my eyes, Inis Mona
And reminisce of those palmy days
I moon o'er you, Inis Mona
As long as I breathe
I'll call you my home

20 years I have walked your barrows
Years of emulous youth
I followed the path of the wise

There it all was sown
The inspiration
Removing the seven seals
There it was revealed
Enigma of freedom
Unclosing an unseen door
Show less

Although of course only the band knows what the true meaning of the song is it might refer to :

Inis Mona
Inis Mona means Mona Island, the supposed homeland of the Druids of yore. While it possibly refers to Ynys Môn or Anglesey (and this band, of course, is Swiss) "As long as I breathe, I call you my home!"

20 years I have walked your barrows
[Middle English bergh, from Old English beorg, beorh, hill, burial site; see bhergh- in Indo-European roots.]

This means for 20 years I have walked your hills.

Removing the seven seals

Possibly this refers to the seven seals in the book of revelations

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_seals

Or continuing with the theme it may refer to some theme or stuff about the Druids.

Anyway our next article will be 7 places you must see in Ireland and how to get there.

Can you unlock further parts of the song. Comment below and worthy comment will receive 20 Q7 Weapons.
