Damh the Bard

On Midwinters Day

by Damh the Bard
Damh the Bard

Biography:

Damh the Bard is a Druid whose spirituality is expressed through his music, storytelling and poetry. Drawing on the Bardic traditions his performances are both entertaining and educational, weaving a tapestry of myth, peace, and Pagan anthems that speak directly to the heart, but never without a good splash of humour. Leaving academia to those better qualified, Damh works within that world of myth that cannot be proved; where the Faerie really do dance on Midsummer's Eve

Now that Samhain is over,
C G
And the Sidhe have returned to their home,
Am C F Em
The dead have followed the Raven's song,
G F
And no longer among us they roam.
C F C
The wisdom of our ancient past,
C G
Show us how to ride the storm,
Am C F Em
For their tombs they swallow the rising sun,
G F
And the Mabon is always reborn.
F
Reborn, oh

C F C
So come all you people, come and sing with me,
C F G
Join our voices, and sing the long nights away,
C F C C
All over the land, a chorus of voices will sing,
F G
For the rising Sun on Midwinter's Day.

C F C
The land may be barren and lifeless,
C G
The ground may be frozen and hard,
Am C F Em
And the rain that fell has now turned to ice,
G F
The Winter is showing her card,
C F C
But now the Sun king has rested,
C G
And his eyes have turned to the Earth,
Am C F Em
For three days the Sun has been still in the sky,
G F
But the time has now come for his birth.
F
His birth, oh

C F C
So come all you people, come and sing with me,
C F G
Join our voices, and sing the long nights away,
C F C C
All over the land, a chorus of voices will sing,
F G
For the rising Sun on Midwinter's Day.

C F C
Some say Jesus was born today,
C G
Some say he is the Mabon,
Am C F Em
Some say that he is the Son of God,
G F
While others the Son of the Sun,
C F C
Some they listen in woodlands,
C G
For the call of Herne,
Am C F Em
While others they hear the clash of swords,
G F
For the Oak King will return!
F
Return, oh

C F C
So come all you people, come and sing with me,
C F G
Join our voices, and sing the long nights away,
C F C C
All over the land, a chorus of voices will sing,
F G
For the rising Sun on Midwinter's Day.

C F C F C G

C F C
So come all you people, come and sing with me,
C F G
Join our voices, and sing the long nights away,
C F C C
All over the land, a chorus of voices will sing,
F G
For the rising Sun on Midwinter's Day.
