The leaves are dancing the autumn waltz The smell of the coming rain Delivered by the wind that breathes through the trees The forest is alive, and slowly comes the night The branches are following me In frightening twirls they take me as we fall in the dark O, in the name of the burning fire O, in the name of the stag and the wolf Here I invoke thee, Guardian of the grove Listen my prayer! O, in the name of the burning fire O, in the name of the yew and oak Here I invoke thee, Goddess of the Moon Listen my prayer! As I call your name the woods are leaving me be And I find myself right under a moonbeam By the flames that burneth bright I commence my rite I offer thee my sacrifice The broad white moon slowly climbs and silently cries Horn and hoof are the goat-foot god SongtexteCome where the dances trod Moonlit sky, on dusky hill When the haunted wood is bushed, forgotten and still O, in the name of the burning fire O, in the name of the stag and the wolf Here I invoke thee, Guardian of the grove Listen my prayer! O, in the name of the burning fire O, in the name of the yew and oak Here I invoke thee, Goddess of the Moon Listen my prayer! As I call your name the woods are leaving me be And I find myself right under a moonbeam In fiery flame by starlight pale In shadowy host that rides the gale Thee we invoke, by the moon-led sea By the standing stone and the twisted tree I am a hawk on the cliff, I am a hill of poetry I am a ruthless boar, I am a wave on the sea. We light the sky aflame, We are the sky in flames We burn you at the stake We are the - the wicker men. O, in the name of the burning fire O, in the name of the stag and the wolf Here I invoke thee, Guardian of the grove Listen my prayer! O, in the name of the burning fire O, in the name of the yew and oak Here I invoke thee, Goddess of the Moon Listen my prayer! Moonbeam stone circle!
