A Song to Ostara


As part of our coming gifting to Ostara, I want to incorporate singing. Our voices are divine gifts capable of incredible goodness. I started to write down a song in Swedish, but quickly realized that I wanted to be able share, and invite all members to consider singing to Ostara this March.

It is my hope that this spring of 2024, more of our Folk will sing together.

The songs are sung to the melody of ''Hail to the Princess Aurora'' from Disney's ''Sleeping Beauty'', 1959.

English Version:

''This is a song

To a Goddess so bright

Her shining light that warms the earth

It brings to us both hope and mirth

Hail to the Goddess, Ostara!

The Folk now gathers to worship

Hail winters end!

Hail to the dawn!

Hail to the Goddess, Ostara!

May we be joyful

Darkness is brought low

Glory to you now, Ostara!

Hail Ostara!

Hail Ostara!

Hear our bright song

Young, old, as one Folk

Victory is near now, Ostara!

Hail winters end!

Hail to the dawn!

Hail to the Goddess, Ostara!''

Swedish Version:

''Solen i öst

Skåda strålande ljus

Vårens vackra ljud må eka nu

När mörkret snart har nått sitt slut

Hell dig, du vackra Ostara!

Folket nu samlas i vördnad

Hell vinterns slut!

Hell Gryningen!

Hell dig, du vackra Ostara!

Må hon ge välstånd

Hör nu vår lovsång

Fröjdas åt våren, Ostara!

Hell Ostara!

Hell Ostara!

Må hon ge välstånd

Hör nu vår lovsång

Segern den nalkas, Ostara!

Hell vinterns slut!

Hell Gryningen!

Hell dig, du vackra Ostara!''
