Through the marshes And through the filtering glades Through the corn And through the scything fields The summer sun Dances and rages The summer sun Flies burning into the light And who shall die At the d**h of the corn? Rise, rise, rise The sleeping giant awakes He circles into circling The wild Wild Hunt Dawn dies at dusk And Dolly banners are raised For the d**h of the corn They're sealed and shining With the True Love Knot And who shall lie At the d**h of the corn? Rise, rise, rise Shifting the shapes That bleed the mountains You tear apart my body The Corn King dies Has died, he dies And is dying still He shall rise again And sink back into earth And who will cry At the d**h of the corn? Rise, rise, rise And who will cry? (The summer sun dances) And who shall die? (The summer sun dances) The d**h of the corn Rebirth and reborn And the True Love Knot is found In the d**h of the corn And the True Love Knot is bound In the d**h of the corn And the True Love Knot is crowned In the d**h of the corn
