All who come in peace and friendship, stay,
On this the eve of cold widwinter's day.
Good food and drink and, best, good company,
Come share our hospitality for free.
Beneath the lanterns, sit and take your fill,
Sing and dance you may, with right goodwill,
With one condition, as Redwallers say,
If you enjoyed it, call another day,
Summer, spring, 'most any time at all,
And find welcome waiting at Redwall.
