1
Now the green blade riseth from the buried grain,
2
corn that in the dark earth many days hath lain.
3
Love lives again that with the dead hath been:
4
love is come again like corn that springeth green.
5
In the grave they've laid him, earth above his head.
6
Many oaths they've sworn there, vowing he was dead,
7
yet he arose so fairly to be seen:
8
love is come again like corn that springeth green.
9
With their scythes they've cut him 'til he could not stand;
10
to the cart they've bound him, wheeled him o'er the land,
11
stabbed him and flayed him, yet his will was keen:
12
love is come again like corn that springeth green.
13
He was pressed and broken by the mighty stones;
14
in an iron cauldron boiled his blood and bones.
15
Ill as they've served him, stronger hath he been:
16
love is come again like corn that springeth green.
17
Raise your glass and praise him, all who love him well --
18
send the brown bowl 'round that all may drink their fill.
19
From death to life he leads us all between:
20
love is come again like corn that springeth green.
