Midsummernight Sonne Hagal
Em C Am7 x2
[Em]Red-hot midsummer
torrid winds do moan[C]
earth of dust and crevice[Am7]
put us off to roam[Em]
no rain was falling
since spring passed by[C]
and this red midsummer[Am7]
turns into our decay[Em]
[C] [Am7] [Em]
Through that heat
above sand so roan[C]
swirls the blackbird's song[Am7]
joined by the old trees' groan[Em]
locusts sing
in bright sunshine[C]
and this red midsummer[Am7]
turns into our decay[Em]
C Am7 Em x4
[Em]Place a cross of leaves
may there be strength to grow[C]
let us dance this rite[Am7]
call on the help of Thorr[Em]
the wooden pole,
wreath and midsummer prayer[C]
help us to avert[Am7]
this imminent decay[Em]
[Cmaj7] [Am7] [Em]
The holy king
beats now the king of oak[C]
yet burn the holy herbs[Am7]
Vervain and Saint John's word[Em]
the child then the old man
cast them into the flames[C]
now this red-hot midsummer[Am7]
is gifted a silver ray[Em] [C] [Am7]
is gifted a silver ray [Em] [C] [Em]
