Mouchos, curuxas, sapos e bruxas.

Demos, trasgos e diaños, espritos

das neboadas beigas.

Corvos, píntigas e meigas,

feitizos das menciñeias.

Pobres cañotas furadas,

fogar dos vermes e alimañas.

Lume das Santas compañas,

mal de ollo, negros meigallos,

cheiro dos mortos, tronos e raios.

Oubeo do can, pregón da morte;

fuciño do sátiro e pé do coello.

Pecadora lingua da mala muller

casada cun home bello.

Averno de Satán e Belcebú,

lume dos cadabres ardentes,

corpos mutilados dos indecentes,

peidos dos infernais cús,

muxido da ma embravecida.

Barriga inútil da muller solteira,

falar dos gatos que andan a xaneira,

guedella porca da cabra mal parida.

Con este fol levantarei as chamas

deste lume que asemella ó do inferno,

e fuxirán as bruxas a cabalo das súas escobas,

índose bañar na praia das areas gordas.

¡Oíde, oíde! os ruxidos que dan

as que non poden deixar de queimarse

no augardente quedando así purificadas.

E cando este brebaxe polas nosas gorxas baixe,

quedaremos libres dos males da nosa ialma

e de todo embruxamento.

Forzas do ar, terra, mar e lume;

vos fago esta chamada:

si é verdade que tendes mais poder

que a humana xente, eiquí e agora,

facede cos espritos dos amigos que están fora

participen con nos desta queimada.
