Fly me to the moon

Fly me to the moon
Let me play among the stars
Let me see what spring is like
On a-Jupiter and Mars
In other words, hold my hand
In other words, darling, kiss me

Fill my heart with song
And let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, I love you



Fill my heart with song
Let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words, please be true
In other words, in other words
I love ... you

Dance of the Wild Fairies

I wandered alone to the forest one night
Led by a music strange to hear
And followed the glow of a shimmering light
That seemed to grow distant as I grew near

The woods were alive with the fragrance of spring
But winter was everywhere clear to see
The moon shone bright and a bat on the wing
Beckoned me closer and said to me:

"A clearing close in the forest you'll find
A fabulous banquet, a fairy ball
If you close your eyes and you open your mind
The veil disappears and you'll see it all"

Come and play as the wild fairies play
In a magical circle, a fairy ring
You won't want to leave and forever you'll stay
Where the vision is bright as spring

Come and dance the wild fairy dance
Spin in a circle as fast as light
Once you begin you are caught in a trance
And the world can grow old in a single night

When I closed my eyes to the shimmering light
All memory faded and I could see
That a mushroom circle of red and white
And myriad fairies surrounded me

Beyond all space and beyond all time
On gossamer wings did the fairies fly
With a joy unknown to a music sublime
The fairies danced, and there danced I

Come and play as the wild fairies play
In a magical circle, a fairy ring
You won't want to leave and forever you'll stay
Where the vision is bright as spring

Come and dance the wild fairy dance
Spin in a circle as fast as light
Once you begin you are caught in a trance
And the world can grow old in a single night

"Those who seek us surely find us
See the trail we leave behind us
Some bewildered, some enlightened
Some are brave, some are frightened

Are we kind or are we vicious?
Nectar poison or delicious?
That, my sweet, you will discover
Fairy foe, or fairy lover"

Come and play as the wild fairies play
In a magical circle, a fairy ring
You won't want to leave and forever you'll stay
Where the vision is bright as spring

Come and dance the wild fairy dance
Spin in a circle as fast as light
Once you begin you are caught in a trance
And the world can grow old in a single night

I wandered alone to the forest one night
Led by a music strange and clear
If you happen to pass when the moon is bright
And the veils are thin you will find me here
If the veils are thin you will find me here

Walking in the air

Fairies by Celtic Women

We're walking in the air
We're floating in the moonlit sky
The people far below are sleeping as we fly

We're holding very tight
I'm rising in the midnight blue
And finding I can fly so high above with you

All across the world
The villages go by like dreams
The rivers and the hills, the forests and the streams

Children gaze, open mouthed
Taken by surprise
Nobody down below believes thier eyes

We're surfing in the air
we're swimming in the frozen sky
We're drifting over icy mountains floating by

Suddenly swooping low
On an ocean deep
Rousing up a mighty monster from his sleep

We're walking in the air
We're dancing in the midnight sky
And everyone who sees us greets us as we fly

Let it rain

Oh the sky grey
On this work day
You’re just playing along
just to see the day though
You’re lonely and blue
Writing’s on the window
There’s a deep longing sigh
You’re far off in thoughts
You heart’s grown all cold
it would be warm if you could sing a song

Let it rain, rain
It’s the perfect weather for contemplating
Let it rain, rain For after such a weather
Sunshine will come

The rainbows And the laughter
And the serious smile It’s teasing you pal
Like it’s coming to get you
Oh they wish for you To be happy again
But you’re locked up inside
You’re missing your cue
Feeling weary Stop running away
You’re finding it hard to breath

Let it rain, rain
It’s the perfect weather for contemplating
Let it rain, rain For after such a weather
Sunshine will come

Let it rain, rain
It’s the perfect weather for contemplating
Let it rain, rain For after such a weather
Sunshine will come

Wild and free

Let Me Walk In Beauty

O Great Spirit,
whose voice I hear in the winds
and whose breath gives life to all the world,
hear me.
I am small and weak.
I need your strength and wisdom.
Let me walk in beauty
and let my eyes ever behold the red and purple sunset.
Make my hands respect the things you have made
and my ears grow sharp to hear your voice.
Make me wise so that I may understand the things you have taught my people.
Let me learn the lessons you have hidden
in every leaf and rock.
I seek strength not to be greater than my brother or sister
but to fight my greatest enemy, myself.
Make me always ready
to come to you with clean hands and straight eyes
So when life fades as the fading sunset
my spirit may come to you without shame.

Amen

***

I love you

True is the word of your eyes
Beauty is the beating of your heart
Love is the smile on your face
Dearie is the touch of your heart

***

Wild and free

In my heart I am Indian, Wild and Free,
but in this world, it was not meant to be.
Sun father, Moon Woman, Earth Mother, guiding me through my day,
but somehow, in this world I lost my way.
Great Spirit, far and wide, please come to me and be my guide,
take me as your daughter and you’ll be proud of me,
and then I shall become an Indian on the land that’s Wild and Free,
where for me happiness shall always be..

There's honey in your eyes

There is honey in your eyes when you look without hunger
There is sunshine in your face when your mind is pure
Feathers in your hands when you touch without taking
And petals on your feet when you walk with joy
Music in your voice when you speak with laughter
And moonlight in your sleep when your heart is free
