The Witches Tree (Elder)
I sit beneath the witches tree,
The elder mother talks to me.
I'll journey to the other side,
Her fragrance takes me there.
Old lady standing wise and bent,
Mid-summers night, I breath your scent.
The other world, so near, so far,
So will you lift the veil.
I sleep beneath the witches tree,
The roll-right stones watch over me.
The fey they dance by full moonlight,
I watch them as they shine...
"Breath deep and drink her wine".
Oh queen of herbs, good fortune bring,
Your mystic healing ways, I sing.
Through you I'll meet the faerie folk,
All dancing in a ring.
Owd girl give up thy sacred wood,
A staff and wand to me you should.
For I will give you some of mine,
When I become a tree.
I sleep beneath the witches tree,
The roll-right stones watch over me.
The fey they dance by full moonlight,
I watch them as they shine...
"Breath deep and drink her wine".
Owd girl give me of fruit and flower,
The wine, the essence, and the power;
To see ahead more clearly now,
The path within the mist.
Old lady standing wise and bent,
Mid-summers night, I breath your scent.
The other world, so near, so far,
I see beyond the veil.
I sleep beneath the witches tree,
The roll-right stones watch over me.
The fey they dance by full moonlight,
I watch them as they shine...
"Breath deep and drink her wine".
The elder mother talks to me.
I'll journey to the other side,
Her fragrance takes me there.
Old lady standing wise and bent,
Mid-summers night, I breath your scent.
The other world, so near, so far,
So will you lift the veil.
I sleep beneath the witches tree,
The roll-right stones watch over me.
The fey they dance by full moonlight,
I watch them as they shine...
"Breath deep and drink her wine".
Oh queen of herbs, good fortune bring,
Your mystic healing ways, I sing.
Through you I'll meet the faerie folk,
All dancing in a ring.
Owd girl give up thy sacred wood,
A staff and wand to me you should.
For I will give you some of mine,
When I become a tree.
I sleep beneath the witches tree,
The roll-right stones watch over me.
The fey they dance by full moonlight,
I watch them as they shine...
"Breath deep and drink her wine".
Owd girl give me of fruit and flower,
The wine, the essence, and the power;
To see ahead more clearly now,
The path within the mist.
Old lady standing wise and bent,
Mid-summers night, I breath your scent.
The other world, so near, so far,
I see beyond the veil.
I sleep beneath the witches tree,
The roll-right stones watch over me.
The fey they dance by full moonlight,
I watch them as they shine...
"Breath deep and drink her wine".
