Elf Song

Wishing everybody a fine May Eve/Beltane/Walpurgisnacht

Now hight we to the gleamwold fast
To the howe beneath the hill
On Bealtaine, let Mayflower reign
and each may find their fill

Of greenman’s dance with oaken lance
Of magics lost in time
On dreaming land where stone men stand
Yet steal the landlord’s wine

The unicorn still roams for us
The firebird sings free
Oh I will ride the May night tide
And you can come with me

Though if beside your hearth you’d stay
Remaining mortal child
I’ll kiss your day, then run away
Swept windward to the wild
