Extinguish all flame, ritually renew Arise with the morning, gather the dew Fire on the water, healing our ills Cast spells of protection, gather your will Call calm from the waters, the Earth and the sky Invoke the patrons of kin and of tribe Banish ill fortune, put paid to all pain The circle keeps turning again and again
Sunwise in the circle turn, twin fires of better turn Skyclad, to the beat of the drum Twin fires of Beltíne burn Sun and moon, Earth and stars, twin fires of Beltíne burn
A new dawn heralds the triumph Cold winter melts away Aeonghas Magóg Agus Anú On this day hold sway Make love in the forests, cavort in the fields Anoint the blossom, increase the yield Give toast to the gods and imbibe the wine An Cailleach transformed to maiden divine
The rhythms of the seasons The cycles of the moon Feel the power of the elements Sun shines on you As the sun shines down on you
By Oak, give strength By Rowan, grant magic By Hazel, bestow wisdom Spring from winter's darkness Into invigorating light And bathe in the warmth of the summer sun Faoi dair, labhair neart Faoi caorthann, deontas draiochta Faoi coll, bhronnadh eagna Earraigh ó dorchadas gheiinhridh isteach i solas briomhar Agus folcadh sa teas na grêine tsamhraidh
