O maiden moon, shine down on me
Fresh as spring rain lush and wild and free
Come as the dawn in purity
Grace me with your heart, simply opening
O mother moon, shine down on me
in river deep fullness carry me
Fertile caress, coax me to the dream
Pull me to your breast, enfolding me
Grandmother moon, shine down on me
In silver strands curling round the seas
With your sweet breath whisper tales to me
Winter stillness now, bring me your peace
