Keep your heel inside the ring. Something underneath is listening. Andedion uediiumi… [I invoke the powers below…] Thirteen shadows, twelve in sight, One moves wrong in the firelight. Black wool catches on the thorn. We wear the storm before it’s born. Pass the bowl from hand to hand. Wet the mouth and wake the land. Rain, rain, bite the ground, Turn our circle inside out. Heel and hollow, tooth and tongue, Let the buried river run. Uediiumi! [I invoke!] Taranin! [Taranis!] Rain, rain, hear our feet. Bring the dark up underneath. Andedion uediiumi, [I invoke the powers below,] Diiiuion risun artiu, [Through the power of the divine,] Taranin! [Taranis!] Uediiumi! [I invoke!] Uediiumi! [I invoke!] Andedion uediiumi, [I invoke the powers below,] Diiiuion risun artiu, [Through the power of the divine,] Taranin! [Taranis!] Dubron, dubron! [Water, water!] Nemeton! [Sacred grove!] Dubron, dubron! [Water, water!] Taranin! [Taranis!] Terre noire, terre fendue, [Black earth, earth split wide,] Boif la pluie tant atendue. [Drink the rain so long awaited.] Sor nos piez et sor nos mains, [Upon our feet and upon our hands,] Vien, orage, par les plains. [Come, storm, across the plains.] There is water in the bowl. There is water in the stone. There is someone in the circle With a mouth that is my own. Rain, rain, bite the ground, Turn our circle inside out. Heel and hollow, tooth and tongue, Let the buried river run. Andedion uediiumi! [I invoke the powers below!] Diiiuion risun artiu! [Through the power of the divine!] Taranin! [Taranis!] Rain, rain, split the clay, Wash the names we brought away. Through our hair and down our teeth, All the roots begin to breathe. Dubron, dubron! [Water, water!] Nemeton! [Sacred grove!] Thirteen shadows bend as one. Still we turn. The rain has come. Something rises through the loam. Uediiumi! [I invoke!] Taranin! [Taranis!] Keep your heel inside the ring. Something underneath can sing. Dubron… [Water…] Dubron… [Water…]
