The winter was long, the frost was severe

No game had been brought down

In this famine year

The ground is still frozen

The fields still lay bare

New growth in the woods

Was stunted and spare

So they gathered together,

Together they prayed

A meal would be brought forth

On this holy day

Invoking her name to deliver them soon

The goddess of the hunter moon

They built a great fire reaching up to the sky

And watched the full moon

Take command of the night

Into the clearing came a buck and a boar

As if offering themselves in silent accord

The people rejoiced at the bountiful feast

In awe of the great power of the unseen

They gave thanks and praised her

For seeing them through

The goddess of the hunter moon
