about

"Zur Lichtermess des Tagwerk erwocht!"

As light makes its way back into the world and spring prepares for victory, Lichtmess (Candlemas) and Imbolc draw near - the time of silence comes to an end. Another year with its own joys and pains, with work and hardship, with fulfilment and loss lies ahead.

To celebrate the new beginnings and to conjure the new energy that lies therein, we grant you another peek into the debut-record by Zwischenlichten: With Valkenstijn doing lead-vocals this time, with bone-percussion and accordion coming into play, 'Lichtmesstag' comes as a bit of a tribute to the Urfolk-stylings of acts such as Sturmpercht, Fräkmündt, Jägerblut and Waldteufel.

lyrics

Der Tag is um a ganze Stund scho länger wor`n
und d`Fenster sand no gfrorn.
Wenns zur Lichtmeß schneit, bringts im Johr Segn un Fruchtbarkeit.

A so muaß s Wetter sein. A so muaß s Wetter sein.
A so muaß `s Wetter sein, sein.

Wenns zur Lichtmeß schneit, bringts im Johr Segn un Fruchtbarkeit.

Enk weihn und zündt sie`s an, das `s Taglicht wochsen kann!
Wenns zur Lichtmeß schneit, bringts im Johr Segn un Fruchtbarkeit

Aus steht heut der Knecht, der was Guats zum Essen mecht.
Drum Bäuerin, koch auf und back, damit der Herr bekommt a guta Kraft.

A so muaß s Wetter sein. A so muaß s Wetter sein.
A so muaß `s Wetter sein, sein.

Wenns zur Lichtmeß schneit, bringts im Johr Segn un Fruchtbarkeit.

Der Liachtmeßtag, der is und bleibt do allweil, was er war.
De Dienstbo`n und die Bauernleut, a Lostag fürs ganze Jahr.

So ziehn mer das Liacht,
und hem die Nocht.
Zur Lichtermess des Tagwerk erwocht!
