Imbolc

By Elisa M. Welch

All in a day
The winter melts away
Frozen ground 
Begins to thaw
Far and away
It’s the way we play in Tir na N’Og
All in a song
Brigit comes along
Holding a light
She teaches us to sing
Singing along
We banish winter and welcome spring
Light a candle bright
At the end of night there’ll come a day
Winter is done
We’re turning to the sun
Fire in the sky
Ignites the day
Fiery star
Reminds us who we are lest we drift away
Imbolc greets blue moon
And they play a tune to light the way
All in a day
The winter melts away
Frozen ground 
Begins to thaw
Far and away
It’s the way we play in Tir na N’Og
