Mabon 2005
Soon the Mother to her rest will go
Our second harvest we gladly store
For the long winter that lies ahead
Hail
Son of the Light
Divine
maker of grace
We offer
up our thanks for the harvest
Your
bountiful sunshine makes
Hail
Mother Earth in your autumn dress
Gold
and russets adorn your frame
Bless
us now with thy fiery grace
We thank
you in the Mothers name
Hail
to the Autumn winds that blow
The
leaves dance around our feet
Bless
us now with thy dance of life
We thank
you in the Mothers name
Hail
to the Sunlight's waning fire
Soon
to cool in your winters sleep
Bless
us now with thy gentle light
We thank
you in the Mothers name
Hail
to the Waters that flow sweet
Soon
to become locked in ice's embrace
Bless
us now with thy last flows
We thank
you in the Mothers name
New born
the light this day of shadows bright
We dance
in the fields beneath the pale moonlight
Long
and weary has been the fight
To harvest
the land for the long winter night
Hail
Merry maker, we ask your leave tonight
To join
with us in song, that we are alive this night
Each
day we live is a blessing, as tomorrow is promised to none
Help
us to remember this and take some time for fun
Hail
Caldron keeper, who stirs up the fates of man
She
who knows tomorrow's fates
Be kind
to those of the land
Stand
tall and upright
Ye childern
of this night
Lift
your hearts to the light
Open
wide your arms to the havest King
Feel
the blessings that his precense brings
Time
to lay down all the weal of woe
To face
the morrow with power and grace
Time
to heal the weary soul
We gather
the power in this place
To face
the long nights of winters cold
The light
stands equal to light and dark this day
As all
men are equal in the Mothers sight
Share
we this harvest of grace and power
With
all we can reach with our ken
Reach
out and feel the lands embrace
And
share its bounty forth
To all
men peace and plenty for the nights to come
Let
none be without resource
We ask
it in the Mothers name
Hail
Mother Earth in your autumn dress
Gold
and russets adorn your frame
Blessed
us you did with thy fiery grace
We thank
you in the Mothers name
Hail
to the Autumn winds that blow
The
leaves dance around our feet
Blessed
us you did with thy dance of life
We thank
you in the Mothers name
Hail
to the Sunlight's waning fire
Soon
to cool in your winters sleep
Blessed
us you did with thy gentle light
We thank
you in the Mothers name
Hail
to the Waters that flow sweet
Soon
to become locked in ice's embrace
Blessed
us you did with thy last flows
We thank
you in the Mothers name
