Lyrics:
Chorus:
Beltane, Beltane, Beltane, Beltane
Beltane, Beltane, Beltane, Beltane
I am the calm, I am the quickening
I’m the intoxication and the force
I am the silence, I am the singer
I’m the stallion galloping to its source
Maiden touch my hand, lift me up
Spark my blood in a field of flowers
Green man sweep me up, lay me down
Quench my thirst in a field of flowers
I am the bright pavilion and the feasting
I’m the wedding couple and the bed
I am the morning chorus and the heartbeat
I’m the goal to which all paths are led
