A rhythm stirs within the earth
That tells all nature of a birth
A return to light, return to life
And lead us from this darkest night
God of the sun, now have you come
Your reign of light has just begun
Though all must die to be reborn
Return now on a bright new morn
My lord applauds my pagan ways
And in my heart he’ll always stay
Pagan born!
In winter’s cloak we’ve sheltered long
Waiting for spring’s sweet song
Tho’ warmth we found beside the hearth
Its glow could not break through the dark
I look toward the fiery sky
And know that your return is nigh
Though i shall fall as the harvest corn
It is my fate, i’m pagan born!
