Lyrics by Iain Frisk

lyrics

Lo, for the tiding of the Long Night Moon,
Let the sunrise call about the morning soon.
Short is the biding of the fading light,
Sing for the coming of the longest night.

North wind tell us what we need to know,
When the stars are shining on the midnight snow,
All of the branches will be turned to white.
Sing for the coming of the longest night.

A winter day, the summer grass turned hay,
Frost in the field until the dawn of May.
A summer’s light never shone as great or as bright,
So dance in the shadows of a winter’s night.

Lo, for the tiding of the Long Night Moon,
May the harvest last until the springtime bloom.
Home is our comfort at the winter’s height,
Sing for the coming of the longest night.

All of the colors of the sunrise sky,
Shine a light upon us, as the day goes by,
Sunsetting shadows fading out of sight.
Sing for the coming of the longest night.

A winter day, the summer grass turned hay,
Frost in the field until the dawn of May.
A summer’s light never shone as great or as bright,
So dance in the shadows of a winter’s night.
