We Are Women

[a capella, solo female vocals humming a soft tribal melody] [solo female vocals whispering] Wikkas and healers, Dryads and daughters, All come together, Summon wind and waters. [soft bodhrán begins] [Verse 1] Bare feet through the clover, Moss stains on our knees, Herbs drying over doorways, Mistletoe and ivy leaves. [Verse 2] Moonlight in our bright eyes, Hands weave the oldest scheme, We listen while the stars Tell us what they have seen. [Bridge] Women of nature, Women who choose, Green, good power in all that we use. [Chorus] We are women of roots and rune, Ancient Wisdom of earth and moon. From the woods to the granite spine, Magic woven through all our time. [Instrumental] [wooden percussions, wooden flute] [female vocals humming] [Verse 3] Preserve the earth is our calling, We summon the waters of feeling, We breathe in the wind of life, And invoke the fire of healing. [Verse 4] We speak with the shadows, Chant low with sooty hands, Wear crow-bones in our braids, and guide lost-wandering friends. [Bridge] Women of goodness, Women who see, Every born thing still longs to be free. [Chorus] We are women of roots and rune, Ancient Wisdom of earth and moon. From the woods to the granite spine, Magic woven through all our time. [Instrumental] [female vocals humming] [wooden percussions, wooden flute] [Bridge] Women of darkness, Women of light, Life-loving witchcraft is our might. [Chorus] [female choir] We are women of roots and rune, Ancient Wisdom of earth and moon. From the woods to the granite spine, Magic woven through all our time. [solo female vocals whispering] [Outro]
