Morning Hymn

Dawn touches the sky with her pink fingers,
the sun started travelling through the sky.
Misty veils lie over the land,
they slowly turn in upon themselves.
Our Lady is with us this morning,
Our Lady is with us today.

The sounds of the people are awaking
are heard through the forests, cities and fields,
slowly people are becoming aware
of their lives and their plans and their duties today.
Our Lady is with us this morning,
Our Lady is with them today.

Every day we are glad with our lives,
though not everything will always go right,
we always remember the beautiful times,
but also keep those that were not all right.
Our Lady is with us this morning,
Our Lady is with us today.


A Warning

My Lady if I see how we hurt You
I can just cry
And I don't understand why we so use You
Though I do try
To see Your laughter broken by the greys of smog and stone
And those who were Your chil-dren of which many now have gone

We've sent the magick out far from our lives
It went away
To bent all to our will that were our strives
Hold You at bay
We wanted to play Gods with our lives and our deaths
And now the darkness takes us every time we take a breath

But still You keep us tight in Your warm embrace
And we need You
The green song of the land sunshine on our face
The sky so blue
To see the stars atwinkle in the blackness of Your hair
But we will have to change before we mar Your beauty fair
Amaranth


Moonchant

Lady of the moon
Give us Your silver light
Lady of the moon
Shine on us so bright
Lady of the moon
Smile on us tonight


Out of Sight

My Lady You are hardly visible tonight
The trees they bare their branches, it is a sad, sad sight
The weather is so comfortless, it's been raining overnight
My Lady You are hardly visible tonight

My Lady You are hardly visible tonight
The trees they bear their branches, it is a lovely sight
The weather is so comforting, it's been raining overnight
My Lady You are hardly visible tonight


Softly

Softly leaves are rustling in the air
Softly do the stars shine everywhere
Softly water rippling in the pool
Softly do I sing to evening cool

Softly moon is shining in the night
Softly will descend her silver light
Softly hear the beating of my heart
Softly from my griefs I now do part

Body Chant

Your feet firmly rooted in earth
Firmly rooted in earth
Your thoughts they spin in your mind like air
They spin in your mind like air
Your passion in you is kindled like fire
In you is kindled like fire
Your hair is long o it flows just like water
Long o it flows just like water
Your breath in you o it is your spirit in you
in you o it is your spirit


Love of Life

A heart should be open to all things in life, to the little, simple joys
to children, to people, to beasts and to plants, do you also hear their voice?
Both the sun and the rain are important to us, both have their own special feel,
there's nothing that we can't embrace and enjoy, everything's part of the Wheel.

The little bird singing on the branch of a tree, the starry darkness of night,
mowed grass, a warm bath, or a big apple bite, their small, taste, sound, feel or sight.
Or to really see someone else for some time, their hopes, dreams and also their hurts,
can make you feel love filling up your whole heart, untill it feels like it bursts.

It's hard to remember this every day, there are so many hardships to bear,
but nothing else will make our lives worth to live, for what other option is there
but to really notice the world all around, to let it sing through your soul?
Then you will know what it is to feel joy, then you will surely be whole.
