ANCIENT - THE PAGAN CYCLE lyrics

Eurus, we call upon the east wind

Notus, we call upon the south wind

Zephyrus, we call upon the west wind

Boreas, we call the north wind

Spirit mother hear thy pagan son

On winter solstice night

Waxing mon reveals a new dawn

(The) dark king transforms to infant light

The cycle of ancient times has begun

IO'EVOHE we are reborn

Candlemass brings the (growing) child sun

The triple goddess comes shining down

As witches sing with inspiration

Spiral dancing round and round

The spring equinox rises high

(The) dark maiden returns to us

The woods abound with faery goblins

Pan performs his songs of lust

Rejoice in the beltane sabbat

When lilac performes this magickal night

Naked we leap the sacred fire

And feast upon fruits and violet wine

On the day of summer solstice

The sun king will embrace the litha queen

And perish in the wake of Lughnasad

So may a splendid harvest be reaped

On Mabon we follow the lord of shadows

The empty season is upon us

Lady autumn blows leaves of sadness

Chanting as our offerings turn to dust

Ancestor wraiths ride on Samhain night

To proclaim the mystery of passing

Wearing a death cloak smiles the waning king

Let us see what the future will bring

Death is rebirth

The end brings new beginning

Ever turning

The wheel of the Pagan cycle

Anadia... Klephera... Nuit... Mercury... Hestia...

Horus... Brigit... Vulcan... Aphrodite... Ea... Isis...

Akasha... IO EVOHE!
