As the sun bleeds through the mirk
'Tis the last day we shall work-
For the veil is thin and the spirit wild,
And the crone is carrying Harvest's child!
SAMHAIN! TURN AWAY!
RUN YE BACK TO THE LIGHT OF DAY!
SAMHAIN! HOPE AND PRAY!
ALL YE MEET ARE THE GENTLE FAE!
Burn the fields and dry the corn,
Feel the breath of Winter born!
Stow the grain 'gainst season's flood,
Spill the last of the livestock's blood-
Let the feasting now begin,
Careful who you welcome in!
The table's set with a stranger's place,
Don't stare openly at his face!
Stranger do you have a name?
Tell us all from whence you came-
You seem more like god than man,
Has curse or blessing come to this clan?

Alexander James Adams's Balance of Nature is a wonderful album. The songs are wonderful, musically and lyrically, and He of the Sidhe is an incredible example of it. Nearly all the songs are about transitions of some sort, or about moving forward, and they are all worth listening to.
Thanks for putting out such a wonderful album. Kamani
Alexander James Adams is one of my all time favorite musicians; his music has seen me through both dark times and fair. His musicianship is excellent, a master Bard, songwriter, and fiddler.
Cannot recommend his work enough; his music is exceptional! gaycelt
Weyes Blood expands on this year's acclaimed album ”Titanic Rising” with a handful of alternate takes, recorded alongside Ariel Rechtshaid. Bandcamp New & Notable Oct 23, 2019
Natalie Mering's latest is woozy, hallucinatory folk that swirls and swoons, working with shadow and light, hope and loss. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 10, 2016
This is exactly the album that I need right now. Especially Warlock's Oath and Fang into Vein. Of course, the entire album is glorious spooky goodness. I'm in love. <3 Sai Chi
