I Can’t Help Falling Asleep at Night<br />

By Mairi Ceolmhor, DC Grove<br />

Nov. 2001, for the Public Domain<br />

Original song “I Can’t Help Falling in Love”<br />

Which was written by Perettil with Weis & Elvis Presley<br />

For the tune: http://www.christeen.net/midi2.html<br />

Wise men say don’t drink much wine<br />

But I couldn’t help falling asleep at night<br />

And don’t lean up against that pine<br />

‘Cause I can’t help falling asleep at night<br />

Like the river flows<br />

Flowing to the sea<br />

Darling so time goes<br />

Some tries weren’t meant to be<br />

Take my hand, I can’t stand-up right<br />

‘Cause I can’t help falling asleep at night.<br />

No, I can’t help falling asleep at night.<br />

Bardic Salvo #13: May 1 st , 2002<br />

May (in Minnesota)<br />

By Pat Haneke, Akita Grove. October 2001<br />

Based on the classic song “Stay, Just a Little Bit Longer”<br />

No copyright is claimed, for the Public Domain.<br />

Seductively spoken intro:<br />

“Oh baby, let’s go and play in the field,<br />

and see what treasures they may yield,<br />

I know there’s frost on the grass at dawn,<br />

But, I pray that the Gods’ll hear this song.”<br />

(start “Doo-wopping!”)<br />

May, ahhhh!, be a little bit warmer!<br />

Please, please, please, please, please,<br />

Tell me that you will warm-up.<br />

Now the rain I don’t mind,<br />

And the wind I don’t mind,<br />

If we have a nice warm day, ya,<br />

Just one more time.<br />

Oh, won’t Beltane be, just a little bit warmer,<br />

This cold saps all our youthful ardors.<br />

Won’t you place your sweet lips to mine,<br />

Won’t you say you love me ‘spite frost & rime.<br />

Oh, ya, just a little bit warmer,<br />

Please, please, please, please, please,<br />

Tell me that you will warm-up.<br />

Come on, come on, come on, May,<br />

Come on, come on, come on, May, in Mi-nne-so-ta.<br />

Come on, come on, come on, May, May , May, May<br />

Come on, come on, come on, May.<br />

Mother Earth<br />

By Donald Edwards, 2001, for the public Domain.<br />

Currently composing music, but feel free to make your own<br />

tune or give me a call and I’ll sing it for you.<br />

<strong>The</strong> morning dew lays upon the grass,<br />

As golden rays shed first light,<br />

<strong>The</strong> songbirds sing in the beginning,<br />

And help chase away the night.<br />

A gentle breeze s<strong>of</strong>tly blowing,<br />

Each little blade and stem,<br />

And whispering among the trees,<br />

And sway each Bardic Hem.<br />

Her breath as sweet as heather,<br />

Her touch as s<strong>of</strong>t as fine sand,<br />

Her essence breathing new strength,<br />

To all across the land.<br />

Praise the loving Druids,<br />

Who tend her with such care,<br />

For they do know the love she gives,<br />

And her gifts she does willing share.<br />

HEAR THESE WORDS OF THE DRUIDS,<br />

FOR ALL YE LEND AN EAR,<br />

OUR GREATEST LOVE IS OUR MOTHER EARTH,<br />

WITHOUT HER, WOULD YOU BE HERE?<br />

<strong>The</strong> shouting is intended to fill the world with awareness <strong>of</strong><br />

all Mother Earth does for them.
