Midwinter Celebration

A fire burns brightly in this night
It gives us warmth and delight
The longest night way ahead
We celebrate it with mead and bread
With mead and bread!!!

chorus:
Midwinter... the longest dark
On a hill, around a fire!!!
Celebration... old ways we admire
Under a moon-lit sky...

We feast, eat and drink
Becoming as one with the Gods
Rechanting poems from the wise Edda
They predict us some odds

After midnight we long for the sun
We scream: "Darkness be now gone!"
Balder rise up once again
Son of my father bow to none
Bow to none!!!

chorus.

As in the morning the sun sets
We feel chilled to the bone
In the forest we stood
Feeling as kings on a throne...

chorus.
