moonbeam stone circle

the leaves are dancing the autumn waltz

the smell of the coming rain

delivered by the wind that breathes through the trees

the forest is alive

and slowly comes the night

the branches are following me

in frightening twirls they take me as we fall in the dark

oh

in the name of the burning fire

oh

in the name of the stag and the wolf

here i invoke thee

guardian of the grove

listen my prayer

oh

in the name of the burning fire

oh

in the name of the yew and oak

here i invoke thee

goddess of the moon

listen my prayer

as i call your name the woods are leaving me be

and i find myself right under a moonbeam

by the flames that burneth bright

i commence my rite

i offer thee my sacrifice

the broad white moon slowly climbs and then silently cries

horn and hoof are the goat-foot god

come where the dances trod

moonlit sky

on dusky hill

when the haunted wood is bushed

forgotten and still

cernunnos - faunus - karnayna - khnum

in fiery flame by starlight pale

in shadowy host that rides the gale

thee we invoke

by the moon-led sea
