- The night of the dragon star
- Was born the Il-danach,
- Of the Maiden of the hundred charms,
- The Great Mother.
- The Three eternal by her side,
- Upon the hillside cold and steep.
- Come and be gifted by the God
- Of all Arts and Crafts.
- The foam-white breastling beloved,
- Welcome in every house in the world,
- The wise and skillful Child riding forth,
- All-talented.
- Ye three faces of the Goddess,
- Come ye, come ye forth,
- To the Gift-bearer of mortals
- Give ye salutation.
- Kiss ye his lips,
- Encircle ye his body
- With the hair of your heads;
- And O! thou Culture-giving God,
- And ye, Maiden, Mother, Crone,
- Be with us always.
