lyrics

Seated 'fore the gates of stone
Neath the ash and oak
Right hand is raised to the horned goat
Art's pendant beneath his cloak
Athame and chalice beneath his feet
A sign of the great rite to come
Embodiment of the day and the warmth
Meditates the power of the sun

The Priestess she opens he heart to this man
Union by choice of the moon and the sun
Embrace of his love's at the heart of all life
Circle everlasting the scared great rite

The noonday sun above his horns
Trisquel upon his breast
When wren speaks forth in joyful song
The mystical marriage is blessed
At Beltane's warmth, mayflowers in bloom
Love at the heart of life
Mastery of the three of the worlds
Union of earth and sky

Eclipse of her reasoning brings clarity forth
Surrender by choice to the mysteries of love
Just as Ceridwen took Gwion in the form of a hen
Creation from love starts life's cycle again
