1
With solstice here we'll celebrate
2
This sacred time and have much cheer
3
We will bring warmth and we'll bring light
4
Unto the darkest time of year
5
The mistletoe will be cut down
6
With sickle from the sacred tree
7
A kiss I'll give to you my love
8
A pledge of friendship made to thee
9
For greater than the will of man
10
Or want of that which can be done
11
It falls and shines on where we stand
12
Beneath the great unconquered sun
13
For this is now our turning point
14
The shortest day, the longest night
15
We'll look unto the months to come
16
When the sun will grow both strong and bright
17
A vessel crown all decked with green
18
That tells of winter's tales and mirth
19
Will bring great gladness and much joy
20
To all who walk upon this earth
21
And greater than the will of man
22
Or want of that which can be done
23
It falls and shines on where we stand
24
Beneath the great unconqured sun
25
The servants and the lords alike
26
And masters they will feast with slaves
27
And give them freedom they desire
28
Set thief and scoundrel free this day
29
With candles, dolls and gifts of fruit
30
And blackened faces through the street
31
We'll praise good fortune, raise our cups
32
And drink a toast to king and queen
33
Far greater than the will of man
34
Or want of that which can be done
35
It falls and shines on where we stand
36
Beneath the great unconquered sun
37
We'll burn the lamps to ward away
38
The spirits in the halls of those
39
Whose houses all be decked with boughs
40
Where evergreen and laurel grows
41
The earth's white crust where it lay down
42
Does bow the oaken branch to fall
43
'Tis solstice now, account ye sins
44
Repent ye beggars one and all
45
For greater than the will of man
46
Or want of that which can be done
47
It falls and shines on where we stand
48
Beneath the great unconquered sun
