Spring Strathspey - Gwydion Pendderwen Myrddin was playing his pipes in the wood
And it sounded so good to my feeling,
Hiree, hiroo stirred the dance in my blood
And my fresh maidenhood started reeling.

Chorus:
Sweetly it drew me,
The sound that went through me,
As if sure it knew me:
A maiden-song, laughing long.
I'm sure that I hear it,
O let me draw near it!
I want to be merrily courted in spring.

Round us the trees formed a wheel in my mind,
As if all womankind were careering.
Softly he touched me, our hands intertwined,
As we gently reclined in the clearing.

Chorus

Dewfall to starfall he made love to me
In a manner sae free and revealing;
Swift-footed, light-footed, goat-footed he
Played his sweet melody with such feeling.

Chorus

Daybreak, and I wake to Spring's sweet bouquet
And the glorious day of beginning;
Myrddin is gone on his magical way,
But the Equinox day leaves me spinning.
