Beltane
| The Story |
|
Each spring the Greenman rises from his winter rest and life begins anew. Stag and Flower,
now very much in love, attend a Beltane festival where they perform the ancient
Pagan fertility rite of dancing the maypole. The pipes of Pan blend with some great
vocal harmonies on this song of celebration.

Lyrics:
the Greenman wakes from his winter rest
to host this Pagan fertility fest
from north and south and east and west
come joyful celebrants, all are blessed
chorus:
Beltane's here, celebrate the May
nymphs and satyrs come out to play
with elves and fairies and all things fey
to feel the magick of life this day
upon the maypole rests a wreath
she and I dance together underneath
everything but we two fades away
a love so strong no words could ever say
(chorus)
the ribbons round the maypole wind so tight
the light within your soul shines so bright
of my own free will I come to you this Beltane night
of our own free wills we shall invoke the Great Rite
(chorus)
feel the magick of life this day
feel the magick of life this day
feel the magick of life
