Brigid

 
summoning my strength I purify the rite  
a ritual to bring in new life  
death holds no power over the renewing of spring  
a song for the moment  
true lovers meet in the green of the day  
where love is fertile bringing new life to the aisles  
 
chaste of vision I chant  
let's be merry  
inside the solemn vow, I have kept my promises of virtue  
 
sacred soul a part of the dawn  
innocence blushes and rises to what is pure  
a sanctuary of time a renewal of all things  
taking note of winter's pause  
When Father Frost withdraws his gnarled fist  
 
I Brigid within the sunlight's bliss  
bless each blossom and seed  
that dares pierce the soil  
feeding the masses from my breast  
 
sing a song of plenty  
oh poets of on Imboic's day  
we shall reap from the bounty  
 
my healing spirit will bless you  
take heart I am among you
