[Unison]
The faerie fires are burning bright
Above the misty moor,
And distant music drifts
From ev’ry tangled ring of thorns.
‘Tis on such eves as these,
When moonlit shadows fall,
‘Tis on such eaves as these, you know,
The sidheóg come to call.

Spirits of the wind and water,
Spirits of the flame and fen,
Dark and air and earth incarnate,
Weavin’ things we cannot ken:
Pass this night, O ancient ones,
Pass this night, O ancient ones,
Pass this night, O ancient ones,
Our wards upon the wall.

The faerie fires are burning bright
Above the misty moor,
And distant music drifts
From ev’ry tangled ring of thorns.
‘Tis on such eves as these,
When moonlit shadows fall,
‘Tis on such eaves as these, you know,
The sidheóg come to call.
The sidheóg come to call.

Spirits of the rain and thunder,
Form between the flesh and soul,
Shadows of the sacred mother,
Crowned in beauty strong and cold:
Pass this night, O ancient ones,
Pass this night, O ancient ones,
Pass this night, O ancient ones,
Our wards upon the wall.
