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. |
|
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. |
