Winter
Solstice
Come rest inside with me, my love,
the
full moon wanes in the sky above
The
wheel has turned, the night is long,
the
Ancients chant a Solstice song
Oh
moon! Oh stars! Oh darkest night!
Make
clear our thoughts, make clear our sight
Release our hearts, release our minds,
from
all that’s passed, from all that binds.
Our sorrows dropped on shadow ground,
we’ll walk
away, not turn around
We'll leave the past where it belongs,
in
Earth's dark soil, to join the songs
of all who lived and all who died,
of all
who loved and all who cried
We’re not the same, but we come from one,
let’s
meet at dawn to greet the sun.
