Rebirth Of The Bright Sun

Rebirth Of The Bright Sun

We gather in sea caves to celebrate
rebirth of the bright sun that seems to die
in constant cycle of our spinning world
so we remember that all things must change.

We dance around the pine tree on the hill
and decorate its limbs with fruit and gifts
to celebrate birth of our tribal leader
whose wisdom is light that guides how we live.

Strange gold light shimmers on the mountain peak
as we prepare the feast of fellowship
and sit at tables by the Giving Tree
where Sun Priest in red cape leads sacred hymns.

We light fires to glow with heart-warming love
during long dark night of the winter fell
so we share stories of our tribal hero
who defeated death and taught us to sing.

We gather in pine groves to celebrate
rebirth of the bright sun that seems to live
rising again from hollow heart of death
so we survive another spin of hope.

Strange gold light flickers on the ocean waves
as we hold hands in the circle of stones
where the angel sings by the Giving Tree
who gives us names to remember our faith.
