Beltane Fires
A health to the mothers of the merry begottenA health to the maiden with the fiery eyesA health to the crone that smiles beside usOn the other side of a Beltane fireA health to the sweet rain gently fallingDown upon the Earth so fairA health to the wind that gales around usAnd feeds the passion of a Beltane fireA health to the lovely green-eyed SusanShe whose heart is my desireAnd after all the May Pole's risingÂ…Will you leap with me now o'er a Beltane fire?Alternate verseA health to the acts of love and pleasureA health to the way the May poles riseA health to those who bear no childrenSo those who do come along survive!Eo!
