Now the green blade riseth from the buried grain,
corn that in the dark earth many days hath lain.
Love lives again that with the dead hath been:
love is come again like corn that springeth green.
In the grave they've laid him, earth above his head.
Many oaths they've sworn there, vowing he was dead,
yet he arose so fairly to be seen:
love is come again like corn that springeth green.
With their scythes they've cut him 'til he could not stand;
to the cart they've bound him, wheeled him o'er the land,
stabbed him and flayed him, yet his will was keen:
love is come again like corn that springeth green.
He was pressed and broken by the mighty stones;
in an iron cauldron boiled his blood and bones.
Ill as they've served him, stronger hath he been:
love is come again like corn that springeth green.
Raise your glass and praise him, all who love him well --
send the brown bowl 'round that all may drink their fill.
From death to life he leads us all between:
love is come again like corn that springeth green.
