A winter's carol
|
First song of the robin
|
A winter's carol
|
I go through the land
|
And I can hear it
|
Ringing out
|
Ringing out
|
From pine to oak
|
Bringing out with the December snow
|
Ringing out
|
A gift of old
|
Wrapped in ribbons of gold
|
For the whole world
|
For the whole world
|
The summer queen
|
has been in darkness
|
The summer queen
|
has been in darkness
|
the summer queen
|
surrenders to this
|
To him she reveals
|
the secrets
|
To him she reveals
|
the Wine Ham secrets
|
for a time
|
rejoice
|
Fire and frosted marriage
|
Through a midwinter clearing
|
a forest greets the snowy evening
|
Year after year, the holly king
|
passes the torch as it was intended
|
through a midwinter clearing
|
a final kiss and a new beginning
|
kiss on queen wearing his wreath
|
soon with the sun she will reascend
|
through a midwinter clearing
|
the forest greets a snowy evening
|
with wands of yew, the holly king
|
passes the torch as it was intended
|
passes the torch as it was intended
|
A winter's carol
|
the song of the robin
|
the sun is reborn
|
from the starry heavens
|
A winter's carol
|
echoes the sound of wonder
|
and I can hear it
|
ringing out
|
Ringing out,
|
From pine to oak
|
Bringing out, with the December snow
|
Ringing out
|
A gift of old
|
Wrapped in ribbons of gold
|
For the whole world
|
For the whole world
|
For the whole world
|
Ringing out,
|
winter's carol
|
Ringing out,
|
winter's carol
|
Ringing out,
|
winter's
|
