Loreena McKennitt--The Mummers' Dance
Loreena McKennitt（羅琳娜·麥肯尼特）出生于加拿大緬省草原地區的一個小城鎮（Modern），是加拿大著名的愛爾蘭豎琴演奏家、鍵盤手，以及歌手。《The Mummer's Dance》最先吸引人是風笛，隱約的，延綿在背景裏，好象是從記憶裏緩緩而來的風。而鼓聲接踵而至，各種各樣的鼓被統一成一個印象，不徐不緩，不緊不慢，卻永不停息，推著人跟隨它前進舞蹈。整首曲子由這兩種樂器形成主要旋律，而偶爾出現的小提琴與吉它，好象是突然跳出人群中的獨舞，又象是靈機一動錯出的一個花步。而Loreena的吟唱，把它們織成一個網，將聆聽者著籠罩。\r
When in the springtime of the year
When the trees are crowned with leaves
When the ash and oak, and the birch and yew
Are dressed in ribbons fair
When owls call the breathless moon
In the blue veil of the night
The shadows of the trees appear
Amidst the lantern light
We've been rambling all the night
And some time of this day
Now returning back again
we bring a garland gay
Who will go down to those shady groves
And summon the shadows there
And tie a ribbon on those sheltering arms
In the springtime of the year
The songs of birds seem to fill the wood
That when the fiddler plays
All their voices can be heard
Long past their woodland days
We've been rambling all the night
And some time of this day
Now returning back again
we bring a garland gay
And so they linked their hands and danced
Round in circles and in rows
And so the journey of the night descends
When all the shades are gone
"A garland gay we bring you here
And at your door we stand
It is a sprout well budded out
The work of Our Lord's hand"
We've been rambling all the night
And some time of this day
Now returning back again
we bring a garland gay
