Hail my ancestors keepers of my lifes flight
Hail my loved ones who have gone before me
We are silent in the night
To hear your voices on the wind ...
We gather for the feast of the Dead
To gain our ancestors ear

And ask for their wisdom so dear ...
Let us light candles and name the Dead
Let us honor their lives
We speak for those, whose voices are stilled
and pass on wisdom we imbibe ...
Hail Crone mother, whose face is hidden from the light
Come ye now forward, into our sight
Many souls pass by you tonight
We ask you bless them all
With your enduring might ...
This night of the New Year do we face our fears
We hold our candles high, as we look back on the old year
Today we live, and tomorrow is gone
Let us remember tonight, there is always a dawn ...
We have gathered our tools
For the Gods blessings tonight
Aid us we pray thee
To empower the fight ...
Fine fruits we offer, the table is laid
We thank thee for the harvest
We thank thee for the abundance of forest and glade ...
Tonight we lay down all our woes
and renew ourselves for the time ahead
Reach out your hands, to your brothers in spirit
Tonight let all men join hands in the light
We welcome them all, this New Years day
And bid them Mothers blessings ...
