about

Adapted from a poem written by our friend Mike Adamson.

lyrics

In the great southern land, in the starlight, cold
In the sharpening nights when the days grow short
We’ll gather to the telling of the tales of old
Where the lord of the year in his reign holds court

Summer’s riot of warmth has passed us by
The evenings are blue and still
The bonfires crackle beneath the sky
Their embers hold back the chill

We’ll hear the tale of the Celtic wheel
How it turns within seasons
How the Gods of old our hearts shall heal
Each for our own special reasons

The wheel is turning churning burning
The wheel is turning evermore
The wheel is turning learning yearning
The wheel is turning olden lore

The misty glades of autumn hold
A relief from summers fierce
The seeds of coming sharpness cold
When flames the darkness pierce

Gather to the drumbeat heed the cry
The way between worlds is clear
All who are gone, in freedom fly
Free from pain and free from fear

The wheel is turning churning burning
The wheel is turning evermore
The wheel is turning learning yearning
The wheel is turning olden lore

Ruins rise ghostly from misty land
Where the Gate of the West stands wide
Never ending spaces are at hand
Souls call from the other side

But the moment of contact is just too fleeting
It’s past in a swirl a rush all too soon
A brief racing spectral meeting
That leaves us alone with the moon
