We won´t wait any longer We have trusted no man's promise,
We have kept to just ourselves;
We have suffered from the lies
In all the books upon your shelves
And our patience and endurance
Through the Burning Times and now
Have given us the strength
To keep our vow.
We won't wait any longer
We are stronger than before
We won't wait any longer
We are stronger
You have grazed away the heather
And have razed the sacred grove;
You have driven native peoples
From the places that they love.
Though your greed has been unbounded,
You have felt the pangs of shame
Every time you trod
Upon the Mother's name.
Chorus
Though you thought you had destroyed
The memory of the Ancient Way,
Still the people light the bale fires
Every year on solstice day.
And on Beltane Eve and Samhain
You can find us on the hill
Invoking once again
The Triple Will.
Chorus
Through the ages many races
Have risen and have gone,
But dispersed among the nations
Of the world we linger on.
Now the time has come to take
The sacred Cauldron of Rebirth
And fulfill our ancient
Pledges to the earth.
Chorus "The Faerie Shaman," Gwydion Pendderwen, 1983
May the circle be open
May the circle be open, but unbroken may the peace of the godess beat ever in your heart merry meet and merry part and merry meet again Chant for inner strength
To the Moon
to the Sun
to the skies
to the waters
stars, let your strength grow
let us unite
let me shine bright Mother Earth
The Earth is our mother
we must take care of here
The Earth is our mother
we must take care of her
Heyanna Hoyanna
Hey yau yau Heyanna Hoyanna
Hey yau yau Holy maiden huntress,
artemis, artemis
Maiden come to us,
silver shinning wheel
of radiance, radiance
mother come to us
ancient queen of wisdom
radiant, radiant
old one come to us Invocation of the Elements Air, Fire, Water, Earth,
Elements of astral birth,
I call you now; attend to me!
In the Circle, rightly cast,
Safe from curse or blast,
I call you now, attend to me!
From cave and desert,sea and hill,
By wand, blade,and pentacle,
I call you now, attend to me!
This Is my will, so mote it be!
The Witches Way Bide ye the Wiccan laws ye must, in perfect love and perfect trust.
Ye must live and let live, fairly take and fairly give.
Cast the Circle thrice about, to keep unwelcome spirits out.
To bind the spell well every time, let the spell be spoken in rhyme.
Soft of eye and light of touch, speak ye little and listen much.
Deosil go by waxing moon, chanting out the Wiccan runes.
Widdershins go by waning moon, chanting out the baneful tune.
When the lady's moon is new, kiss the band in Her times two.
When the moon rides at her peak, then the hearts desire seek.
Heed the North winds mighty gale: lock the door and trim the sail.
When the wind comes from the South, love will kiss thee on the mouth.
When the moor wind blows from the West, departed spirits have no rest.
When the wind blows from the East, expect the new and set the feast.
Nine woods in the cauldron go, burn them quick and burn them slow.
Elder be the Lady's tree, burn it not or cursed ye'll be.
When the wheel begins to turn, let the Beltane fires burn.
When the wheel has turned to Yule, light the log and the horned on rules.
Heed ye flower, bush and tree, by the Lady, Blessed Be.
Where the Rippling waters go, cast a stone, the truth to know.
When ye have and hold a need, hearken not to others greed.
With a fool no seasons spend, or be counted as his friend.
Merry meet and merry part, bright the cheeks and warm the heart.
Mind the threefold law ye should, three times bad and three times good.
When misfortune is enow, wear the blue star on thy brow.
True in love ye must ever be, lest they love be false to thee.
These words the Wiccan Rede fulfill: An ye harm none, do what ye will.
Elements Hymn At one with the Universe
My spirit is free
All creation pulses in me Floating upon the wind
Sparking with the energy of fire
Flowing with the waters
Dancing the rhythms of the Earth Spinning and Spiraling
into Elemental re-birth
The magic of being renews Floating upon the wind
Sparking with the energy of fire
Flowing with the waters
Dancing the rhythms of the Earth Between the Moon and the Sun Prayer to the Horned God Horned One of the wilderness,
Winged One of the shining skies,
Rayed One of the splen'drous Sun,
Fallen One of the Samhain cries-
I call amidst the standing stones
Praying that you, O Ancient One,
Will deign to bless my mystic rites-
O fiery Lord of the Blazing Sun!
The Blessing Chant May the powers of The One,
the source of all creation;
all-pervasive, omnipotent, eternal;
may the Goddess,
the Lady of the Moon;
and the God,
Horned Hunter of the Sun;
may the powers of the Spirits of the Stones,
rulers of the elemental realms;
may the powers of the stars above and the Earth below,
bless this place, and this time, and all who are with you.
The Witches' Rune Darksome night and shining moon,
Hearken to the witches' rune.
East, then south, west then north,
Here come I to call the forth. Earth and water, air and fire,
Work ye unto my desire.
Wand and Pentacle and Sword
Hearken ye unto my word. Cords and Censer, Scourge and Knife,
Waken all ye into life.
Powers of the Witches Blade,
Come ye as the charm is made. Queen of Heaven, Queen of Hell,
Lend your aid unto the spell.
Horned Hunter of the Night,
Work my will by magic rite. By all the power of land and sea,
As I do will, so mote it be.
By all the might of moon and sun,
Chant the spell and be it done.
Thank You For This Day Thank You for this day on Earth
Ancient Mother who gave me birth
Healing Mother who keeps me strong
Crone Mother who brings each new dawn Thank You for the gift of being
For blessing me with the wonders of seeing
For the sounds and feeling of laughter
and the wisdom learned through pain Spirit Mother bless me,
tomorrow with a day again
Meine lieblings Version von The Witches Rune Darksome Night and Shining Moon
Balance of the dark and light,
hearken ye our Witch's Rune,
as we perform our sacred rite!
With earth and water, air and fire,
by blade and bowl and circle round,
we come to you with our desire:
let all that is hidden now be found!
With censor, candle, book and sword,
and ringing of the altar bell,
we tie a knot within our cord
to bind our magic in a spell.
Mother of the summer fields,
goddess of the silver moon,
join with us as power builds!
dance with us our witch's rune!
Father of the Summer dew
Hunter of the winter snows
With open arms we welcome you!
Dance with us as power grows!
By all the light of moon and sun,
by all the might of land and sea,
chant the rune and it is done.
As we will, so mote it be! music by SJ Tucker, lyrics by SJ Tucker and Scott Sumers
