With snow’s first retreat and the heralding of spring’s dawn,

We give praise and welcome to you, Brighid.

With imbas and tending of flame,

We give praise and welcome to you, Brighid.

With reed and the cross of your forging,

We give praise and welcome to you, Brighid.

With poetry and adorations of your deeds,

We give praise and welcome to you, Brighid.

Welcome, Lady of Poetry, Healing and Creation,

Welcome and be celebrated this Imbolc day.
