Beltain, 2008
Leap high in the
night
The Beltain fires
rise
To be born anew
is our goal
Flickering is the
light
to make the shadows
dance
As we step forward
bold
Hail To our foremothers
Whose wisdom we
seek
Hail to our forefathers
Whose guidance we
ask for
Bright the light
of fire
We call thee this
night
Blessed is thy bright
presence
Cool the wash of
water
We call thee this
night
Blessed is thy soothing
draught
Solid the path of
earth
We call thee this
night
Blessed is the ground
we walk on
New kissed the breath
of air
We call thee this
night
Blessed is thy caress
Hail Flora Mother
of blossoms
As we dance around
the May pole
May our steps be
light
Hail Bona Dea
May your goodness
wash over us
As we leave the
fruits of our labors
Hail Maia, Mother
of May
For whom the season
is named
Let us all increase
in bounty my lady
On this, thy May
eve
Tonight we will
listen for
The Queen of the
Faeries
As she rides her
white mare
Through the night
skies
All Hail our Forebears
For on this night
they may speak
Tonight is the night
for wisdom to seek
Open your eyes
Open your heart
Seek and ye shall
find
An open door
Walk ye bold, on
the path of right
With clean hands,
reach for your tomorrow's
Make your needs
known on the light
It is time to put
away all sorrows
Revel in Joy this
night
Deck your person
with flowers
Enjoy the airs perfume
with delight
Love is the law
on the path tonight
Sweet kiss of the
Gods
Our breath of life
We partake of your
Joy
On this Beltain
night
Bright the light
of fire
We called on thee
this night
Blessed was thy
bright presence
Cool the wash of
water
We called on thee
this night
Blessed was thy
soothing draught
Solid the path of
earth
We called on thee
this night
Blessed was the
ground we walked on
New kissed the breath
of air
We called on thee
this night
Blessed was thy
caress
