Rite of Mabon
Hail the Harvest Moon
Hold your sickles high
Ripe is the Harvest of the Light
Come hither Whispering Water
Whose cool drink has fed the grains
Pour now into our cup of Joy
Come hither Dark sweet Earth
Whose bounty we harvest
Ground us now we pray with thy savor
Come hither Dancing Air
Whose cool breezes mellow the brow
Blow gently on this company
Come hither Fires Flame
Whose bright favor burns away
The stubble of the fields
Bless our endeavors with your Light
Hail Cerridwin, whose caldron of wisdom we seek
Hail, Dionysus ,Merry Maker, let us know Joy
Hail
Great Mother thy children have toiled long
And
have reaped the bounty of thy grace
Hail
Great Father who guides our steps with
thy
wisdom
Round
the circle go
Gather
the power .. make it grow
Great
Vortex of Light
Shine
like the Sun
Drive
away all doubt, all fear, all woe
As
the Doss of the fields burns
Round
the circle go
Feel
the power... make it yours
Great
is the Gift of the Mothers Love
Like
a great heartbeat
Feel
it energize your soul
Like
our Mother the Earth calls to the seed
to
grow
Round
the circle go
Shed
the tears of the Years woe
And
let it all go... cleansed be your soul
Rise
up your heart..to face a new day
With
the cool wine of accomplishment
Round
the circle go
Spread
wide your arms like the birds and fly free
Lift
up your heart, Lift up your mind
Rise
up and be one with all
Dance
the Dance of life..to the rhythm of the sickle
as
to the harvest we go..the harvest of the soul
Banished
is the weal of woe..let go the burdens
That
drag at the heart
Love
and Light..spread it around
Like
the sower puts seeds in the fields
Rise
up Light Walkers
And
reap the harvest of Joy
