Circle round for freedom, circle round for peace
for those of us in prison, circle for release.
Circle round the planet, circle for each soul
for our future generations, keep the circle whole.
The spirit of the plants has come to me
in the form of a beautiful dancing green woman (repeat)
Her eyes fill me with peace, her dance fills me with peace (repeat)
The spirit of the plants has come to me and has blessed me with great peace (repeat)
Her eyes fill me with peace, her dance fills me with peace (repeat)
One spirit in the dark,
Like a candle wavers.
Many spirits joined as one,
Burn with the power of the blazing sun.
There is strength in community,
A circle empowering you and me.
The circle binds yet sets us free,
In the Goddess’ name, so mote it be.
