Chorus:
The glowing of the Yule sun, and the running of the deer,
The blowing of the winter winds: Call our Heathen Mothers near!
The holly bears a blossom, white as lily flower,
Our Mothers bear their babies dear, come to their living hour.
Chorus:
The glowing of the Yule sun, and the running of the deer,
The blowing of the winter winds: Call our Heathen Mothers near!
The holly bears a berry, as red as any blood,
And ghostly Mothers come in dreams, to speak their kinfolk's good.
Chorus
The holly bears a prickle, as sharp as any thorn,
Of Heathen Mothers, wise and strong, our folk of old was born.
Chorus
The holly bears a ruddy bark, bitter as green gall,
Now Heathen Mothers stand by us, give rede and ward to all!
Chorus
The holly and the ivy, when they are both full grown,
Of all the trees that are in the wood, the holly bears the crown.
Chorus
