Through the marshes

And through the filtering glades

Through the corn

And through the scything fields

The summer sun

Dances and rages

The summer sun

Flies burning into the light

And who shall die

At the death of the corn

Rise rise rise

The sleeping giant awakes

He circles into circling

The wild Wild Hunt

Dawn dies at dusk

And Dolly banners are raised

For the death of the corn

They're sealed and shining

With the True Love Knot

And who shall lie

At the death of the corn

Rise rise rise

Shifting the shapes

That bleed the mountains

You tear apart my body

The Corn King dies

Has died he dies

And is dying still

He shall rise again

And sink back into earth

And who will cry

At the death of the corn

Rise rise rise

And who will cry

The summer sun dances

And who shall die

The summer sun dances

The death of the corn

Rebirth and reborn

And the True Love Knot is found

In the death of the corn

And the True Love Knot is bound

In the death of the corn

And the True Love Knot is crowned

In the death of the corn
