Four Jacks

*When mother is aslumberingnbeneath her shawl of whitenAnd you wrap your cloak against the windnbut still you feel its bitenWith many mouths at home for feednthis deer must not be lostnWhen you thank the prey and let the arrow flynConjure up Jack FrostnnWhen the maiden slips her samile cloaknrevealing lilac breastsnAnd the rising sun climbing high in the skyncalls acorns to their questnWhen hoof trod earth surrenders to seednand the meadowsweet is queennWhen you step the jig of furrow and plownYou celebrate Jack GreennnJack, Jack, dancing round the moonlightnChanging shadows with every stridenJack, Jack, summer green and Yule whitenHunter, Dancer, Dying One, Guide.nnWhen summer oak green wanes scarlet and brownnand a carpet of leaves is laidnMother's kiss has charged the landnand staghorns drape the gladenThe fields as tall with sacrificenfor springtimes still unbornnRaise the crescent high, cut down the grainnAnd invoke Jack CornnnJack, Jack, dancing round the moolightnChanging shadows with every stridenJack, Jack, summer green and Yule whitenHunter Dancer, Dying One, Guide.nnWhrn the riddled fields aer gathered and gleanednfrom the shadow of a killing freezenAnd twilights fall to copper moonsnthat dance with barren treesnWhen comes the final harvest homenbeneath the silver lightnWhen weary feet tread that dusky roadnJack Lantern walks the night.nnJack, Jack, dancing round the moolightnChanging shadows with every stridenJack, Jack, summer green and Yule whitenHunter, Dancer, Dying One, Guide.nnI'm no tawny hunter, no tiller of barley seed.nI've never threshed a stalk of wheatnbut I've still got a family to feed.nWhen I feel whelmed overnwith provider on my backnI tilt my head,nhowl his howl,nsmille his secret grin nand call on JacknCallin' on JacknI'm calling on Jack
