A ghost of a mist was on the field
The grey and the green together
The noise of a distant farm machine
Out of the first light came
A tattered necklace of hedge end trees
On the southern side of the hill
Betrays where the border runs between
Where Mary Dunoon's boy fell

=====
Out of the port of Liverpool
Bound for the North of Ireland
The wash of the spray and horsetail waves
The roll of the sea below

And Easter here again, a time for the blind to see
Easter, surely now can all of your hearts be free

Doodoodoo....
What will you do?
Make a stone of your heart?
Will you set things right?
When you tear them apart?
Will you sleep at night?
With the plough and the stars alight?
What will you do?
With the wire and the gun?
That'll set things right
When it's said and done?
Will you sleep at night?
Is there so much love to hide?
Doodoodoo....

The "fast lick" in the solo, like the outro arpeggiated part, has been a subject of great debate for many years. However, Rothers has confirmed that the lick is in fact a sweep-picked Em arpeggio in the 7th position. At his early 2010 guitar clinic in New York he confirmed that this lick is all over "Seasons End" because he saw an instructional video by someone he couldn't remember (probably Frank Gambale or Yngwie Malmsteen given the vintage) and wanted to stick in in wherever he could. I've been playing it as a swept G major arpeggio at 7 which is close. Rothers also talked about and played the outro, too, but gave no details. "You'll have to wait for the guitar book," he joked.
