about

A song to celebrate Brigid's Day, Imbolc, the start of Spring.

lyrics

First of February

Snow lies silent all around us
Winter is here
Frozen ground and icy water
Shine crystal clear
On the first of February
Mother earth is making ready
All of life awakens slowly
Springtime is near

Life waits to grow
Winter’s letting go
On the first of February
Mother earth is making ready
All of life awakens slowly
Springtime is near

Feast of Brigid saint or goddess
Blessing the year
Patron saint of all that’s earthly
Goddess of new birth
On the first of February
Make a cross to bless your journey
Welcome in the light returning
Springtime is near

Life waits to grow
Winter’s letting go
On the first of February
Make a cross to bless your journey
Welcome in the light returning
Springtime is near

New life starts to grow
Winter’s letting go
On the first of February
Full of hope and new beginning
Daylight stretching flowers blooming
Springtime is near
