Artist: Irish Whip Song: Festival of Light (Lughnasadh) Album: Not Even Close On the feast day of Mary the fragrant, Mother of the Shepherd of the flocks, I cut me a handful of the new corn, I dried it gently in the sun, I rubbed it sharply from the husk With mine own palms. I ground it in a quern of Friday I baked it on a fan of sheep-skin I toasted it to a fire of rowan And I shared it round my people. I rubbed it sharply from the husk With mine own palms. I went sunways round my dwelling In the name of Mary Mother Who promised to preserve me Who did preserve And who will preserve me... I rubbed it sharply from the husk With mine own palms.
