<song>
Earth and dark holds seed and root
To the sun rise leaf and shoot
Rest shall follow all your toil
Turn the circle, turn the soil

Seeds that in the Spring were sown
In the autumn are full grown
Children grow to grooms and brides
Turn the circle, turn the tides

Fields that grow with barley high
In their turn must fallow lie
Wicker men to ashes burn
Turn the circle, turn the sun

Long days full of warmth and light
All must end with gentle night
Here's the wound no art can heal
Turn the circle, turn the wheel

Wounded, weary, sick and sore
Lay down now to rise no more
To the land that gave you birth
Turn the circle, turn the earth

</song>
