Christmas chants were once common throughout Scotland, and on Christmas Eve groups of men or boys went about from house to house chanting traditional songs. These were known as fir-duan (song-men) or Gillean Nollaig (Christmas lads). When they had sung two or three songs at a house, sacred cakes or "bannocks" were handed out to them through the window. Here is a modern adaptation of one of their traditional chants, which can be used for either Solstice or Yuletide celebrations:

Sun of the dawn,
Sun of the clouds
Sun of the Earth,
Sun of the stars
Sun of the rain,
Sun of the dew
Sun of the heavens,
Sun of the Moon
Sun of the flame,
Sun of the sky
Sun of the elements,
Sun of the light.
