Midsummer Night

We sing you a story A wonderful story We sing you a story of Midsummer night For all who would know of the dance of the fairies For all who would seek for the rose of light We gather the blossoms The snow white blossoms The rose red blossoms to twine in our hair We sip of the honey The golden honey We sip of the honey so sweet and rare We go to the fountain The sparkling fountain We go to the fountain for water fair The wind on the fountain The sparkling fountain Has steered the water that floweth fair We taste of the water The sparkling water The living water that floweth fair And there in the twilight the fairies are dancing The fairies are dancing as light as air They lead to the garden The Midsummer garden They lead to the garden where roses bloom The flowers are singing are swaying and singing The flowers are singing with stars and with moon And there is the mother the white robed mother The mother of all that shines in light She gives us a rose from her garland of roses She gives us a rosebud so pure and white And there is the mother the white robed mother The mother of all that shines in light She gives us a rose from her garland of roses She gives us a rosebud so pure and white Oh guard it forever the beautiful blossom Oh guard it forever the rose
