My favorite pagan winter song!
A winter’s carol: the song of the robin
A winter’s carol echo through the land
And I can hear it ringing out from pine to oak
Ringing out with a December snow
Ringing out a gift of old
Wrapped in ribbons of gold for the whole world
For the whole world
The Summer Queen has been in darkness
The Summer Queen surrenders to this
To him she reveals the secrets
To him she reveals the wine and secrets
For a time they join: fire and frost in marriage
Through a midwinter clearing, a forest greets a snowy evening
Year after year, the Holly King passes the torch as it was intended
Through a midwinter clearing, a final kiss and a new beginning
His Summer Queen wearing his wreath
Soon with the Sun she will be ascending
Through a midwinter clearing
The forest greets a snowy evening
With four arms of yew, the Holly King passes the torch as it was intended
Passes the torch as it was intended
A winter’s carol
First song of the robin
The Sun is reborn
From the starry heavens
A winter’s carol
Echo sound of wonder
And I can hear it
Ringing out from pine to oak
Ringing out with a December snow
Ringing out, a gift of old
Wrapped in ribbons of gold
For the whole world
