Green Man Rhymes and Chants

By Colyne Stewart AS June XXXVI (2003)

Ty-green, Ty-green
     Safe me keep
Wolves at bay and spectres creep

Ty-green, Ty-green
     Lord of Wood
Keep me well and keep me good

***

Maple, spruce and white-skinned birch,
Through them all the green-men search

***

Jack-o-Green, Jack-o-Green
Dancing by the tree
Roll the bones and sing the songs
And dance a dance for me.
