The Morrígan ("phantom queen") or Mórrígan ("great queen"), also known as Morrígu, is a figure from Irish mythology. The name is spelled Morríghan or Mór-ríoghain in Modern Irish.
The Morrígan is primarily associated with fate, especially with foretelling doom and death in battle. In this role she appears as a crow, flying above the battlefield. The Morrígan has thus been likened to the Valkyries and Norns of Germanic mythology. She is also associated with sovereignty, and her connection with cows may also suggest an association with wealth and the land.
The Morrígan is often described as a trio of individuals, all sisters, called 'the three Morrígna'. Although membership of the triad varies, the most common combination in modern sources is Badb, Macha and Nemain. However the primary sources indicate a more likely triad of Badb, Macha and Anand; Anand is also given as another name for the Morrígan. Other accounts name Fea and others.
There is some disagreement over the meaning of the Morrígan's name. Mor may derive from an Indo-European root connoting terror or monstrousness, cognate with the Old English maere (which survives in the modern English word "nightmare") and the Scandinavian mara and the Old Russian "mara" ("nightmare"); while rígan translates as 'queen'. This can be reconstructed in Proto-Celtic as *Moro-rīganī-s. Accordingly, Morrígan is often translated as "Phantom Queen". This is the derivation generally favoured in current scholarship.
Celtic music is a broad grouping of music genres that evolved out of the folk musical traditions of the Celtic people of Western Europe. It refers to both orally-transmitted traditional music and recorded music and the styles vary considerably to include everything from "trad" (traditional) music to a wide range of hybrids.
Celtic music means two things mainly. First, it is the music of the peoples identifying themselves as Celts. Secondly, it refers to whatever qualities may be unique to the musics of the Celtic Nations. Many notable Celtic musicians such as Alan Stivell and Paddy Moloney claim that the different Celtic musics have much in common. These common melodic practices may be used widely across Celtic Music:
Morrigan Aensland (Japanese: モリガン・アーンスランド, Hepburn: Morigan Ānsurando) is a video game character from the Darkstalkers series of fighting games by Capcom. Morrigan is a succubus and a powerful princess of the demon realm Makai, who is very vain and lives for little more than the excitement of battle, but slowly takes up more of her royal responsibilities seriously despite her obsessive fascination of the human world.
Morrigan was introduced in 1994's Darkstalkers: The Night Warriors and has since appeared in every game in the series and in various related media, as well as in multiple video games outside the Darkstalkers game series. She is the central character of the extended Darkstalkers franchise and is widely perceived as one of the most iconic Capcom characters as well as one of the most popular female characters in video gaming.

The ravens follow a path of sorrow and tell
The thought will always be mine
The hell is hollow, the heaven left also
A sky under stars don't shine
And tears fall in a chalice of wine
The wind call a guardian of time
Through golden halls where the stars on the ceiling shine
And along carved death call in my mind
Another morrow let the skyline red glow
And one tell of glory and decline
A hidden shadow, god my fellow
And the ocean disclose the sacrifice of time
And i've seen now an angel who's calling my name
A whore in the moonlight, a sun secret flame
And we danced now together, drink honey and wine
And open the gates to other new time
Another morrow let the skyline red glow
And one tell of glory and decline
A hidden shadow, god my fellow
And the ocean disclose the sacrifice of time
And i've seen now an angel who's calling my name
A whore in the moonlight, a sun secret flame
And we danced now together, drink honey and wine
And open the gates to other new time
A king stands tall, far away a raven's call
A tarry in a world of ice and the void drill into my eyes
Walk along the screen shore where the waves deliver his war
Oh walk in hell and love the devil in thy eyes
