Because there don't seem to be many videos for this song that are even remotely connected to its subject ....
This is the brief story in pictures of how Mordred LeFay was twisted, from cradle to grave. It's my first attempt at a video; be gentle with me.

"Mordred's Lullaby"
--Heather Dale
Hush child, the darkness will rise from the deep
And carry you down into sleep,
Child, the darkness will rise from the deep
And carry you down into sleep.
Guileless son, I'll shape your belief,
And you'll always know that your father's a thief,
And you won't understand the cause of your grief,
But you'll always follow the voices beneath.
Loyalty, loyalty, loyalty, loyalty,
Loyalty, loyalty, loyalty, only to me.
Guileless son, your spirit will hate her,
The flower who married my brother the traitor,
And you will expose his puppeteer behavior,
For you are the proof of how he betrayed her loyalty.
Loyalty, loyalty, loyalty, loyalty,
Loyalty, loyalty, loyalty, only to me.
Hush child, the darkness will rise from the deep
And carry you down into sleep,
Child, the darkness will rise from the deep
And carry you down into sleep.
Guileless son, each day you grow older,
Each moment I'm watching my vengeance unfold,
For the child of my body, the flesh of my soul,
Will die in returning the birthright he stole.
Loyalty, loyalty, loyalty, loyalty,
Loyalty, loyalty, loyalty, only to me.
Hush child, the darkness will rise from the deep
And carry you down into sleep,
Child, the darkness will rise from the deep
And carry you down into sleep.
There are many, many books on the subject of Mordred (a/k/a Medraut), King Arthur, and Camelot. One of the best-known is "The Once and Future King" (pub. 1958) by T.H. White. For a more comprehensive list of reading material, Wikipedia is your friend. ;)
