Summer has passed, now winter’s cold breath

Falls as a mist upon darkness and death

Black skeletal trees under slate grey skies

Guarding the stillness at pale moonrise

The wood that we gather, to burn on this night

Will warm the departed who make sacrifice

And save us from all evil spirits that come

Beg the creator to re-kindle the sun

[Chorus]:

All God’s seasons long and good

Says the wild man of the wood

All good souls departed, are with us tonight

To make celebration ’till morning’s first light

To worship our Gods in whom we believe

Give praise to creation on this Hallowed Eve

Lightning flashes, thunder crashes

Place your stone among the burning ashes

If your stone should move away

Within a twelve month of this sacred day

You’ll be dead, you’ll be fey

For your soul, the rest will pray

This great feast of Samain, our long year will end

With smoke from the fields all good souls ascend

Carry our message - with them we sing

For blessing and favour and new growth in the spring
