Now is the solstice of the year

Winter is the glad song that you hear

Seven maids move in seven time

Have the lads up ready in a line

Ring out these bells

Ring out, ring solstice bells

Ring solstice bells

Join together beneath the mistletoe

By the holy oak whereon it grows

Seven druids dance in seven time

Sing the song the bells call, loudly chiming

Ring out these bells

Ring out, ring solstice bells

Ring solstice bells

Ring out, ring out the solstice bells

Ring out, ring out the solstice bells

Praise be to the distant sister sun

Joyful as the silver planets run

Seven maids move in seven time

Sing the song the bells call, loudly chiming

Ring out those bells

Ring out, ring solstice bells

Ring solstice bells

Ring on, ring out

Ring on, ring out
