A Beltane Chorus for Titus and Eilis

Lyris by Syele von der Rosen
To the tune of ‘Ne Sai, Que Je Die’
May, 2008 (A.S. XLIII)

Beltane comes upon us
Welcomed with a chorus
Springtime victor takes his crown and brings his Queen before us
Titus Western King, may the hillsides ring
With tales of strength and chivalry that I would sing
Bearing Oaken crown at Pennsic shall you win renown
For your noble Queen, Inspiration seen
As great revelry greets you now King of the West
By splendor grace and beauty blessed

Beltane comes upon us
Welcomed with a chorus
Springtime inspiration crowned Queen Eilis comes before us 
Queen of Summer Sun, now your reign's begun
May you rule with warmth and strength until your reign is done
Daughter of fair Mists, surely Pennsic's call you won't resist
To inspire all, heeding King's own call
Inspriation fair has brought Titus to his throne
By your grace and courtesy shown
