Maiden of the springs and lochs Mother creatrix and guardian of the herd Bringer of the bright wheat Great weather witch of winter and blue hag of the hills I come from the North, Cailleach Spirit of all these lands and watcher of the winds Most ancient, most revered Carver of the rivers, talons and rust red tooth Dreamer of the moon with crack of ice and breath of snow I come from the North, Cailleach I gave my name to all souls and seasons The maiden sleeping sound on the hill, the mothers apron heavy with stone and the all seeing crone Call me old woman all you like but I am Cailleach and my name was whispered o’er these lands by the gales and tides before it landed on the tongues of men Come take a walk in my worlds, I bid you well.
