Lyrics
[Intro]
Ash on the threshold, red leaves in the well
Old names are turning beneath the bell
[Verse 1]
The last row of apples hangs small on the bough
The field has gone silver; the oath gathers now
We carry the harvest in baskets of black
And mark every doorway for winter's return
[Pre-Chorus]
Sister, lift the lantern
Brother, strike the stone
What was warm is leaving
What is dark comes home
[Chorus]
Incantations of the hallows, rise and wind around
Call the frost through alder branches, wake the sleeping ground
At the ending of the autumn, where the year grows thin
We give our names to midnight—let the long cold in
[Verse 2]
The raven takes three grains from the open hand
The river locks its silver and hardens the land
A crown of dried rowan is laid by the flame
While snow writes a circle around every name
[Pre-Chorus]
Sister, lift the lantern
Brother, strike the stone
The red leaves are falling
The white road leads us home
[Chorus]
Incantations of the hallows, rise and wind around
Call the frost through alder branches, wake the sleeping ground
At the ending of the autumn, where the year grows thin
We give our names to midnight—let the long cold in
[Bridge]
No fear for the root beneath the frozen hill
No fear for the seed in the darkening still
When the first thaw opens the sleeping door
We will return with the green once more
[Final Chorus]
Incantations of the hallows, rise and wind around
Call the frost through alder branches, wake the sleeping ground
At the ending of the autumn, where the year grows thin
We give our names to midnight—let the long cold in
[Outro]
Ash on the threshold, frost on the stone
The old year is silent; the new waits alone
