Pagan Chants
"From out of the forest, on the wings of the wind, came the sounds of words."
"River Chant"
The river flowing
Flowing and growing
The river is flowing
Back to the sea
Mother Earth carry
Your child I will always be
Mother Earth carry me back to the sea
Walk With Wisdom
(author unknown)
Walk with wisdom, from the hallowed place
Walk not in sorrow, our roots shall ere embrace
May truth be your brother,
And honor be your friend,
And luck be your lover, until we meet again.
Air Moves Us
(author unknown)
Air moves us, Fire transforms us
Water shapes us, Earth heals us
And the balance of the wheel goes round and round
And the balance of the wheel goes round
Besom Chant
(Lady Tamara)
Besom, besom long and lithe
Made from ash and willow withe
Tied with thongs of willow bark
In running stream at moon-set dark.
With a pentagram indighted
As the ritual fire is lighted;
Sweep ye circle, deosil,
Sweep out evil, sweep out ill,
Make the round of the ground
Where we do the Lady's will.
Besom, besom, Lady's broom
Sweep out darkness, sweep out doom
Rid ye Lady's hallowed ground
Of demons, imps and Hell's red hound;
Then set ye down on Her green earth
By running stream or Mistress' hearth,
'Till called once more on Sabbath night
To cleans once more the dancing site.
Earth My Body
(author unknown)
Earth my body, water my blood,
Air my breath and fire my spirit.
We Are One
(author unknown)
We are one with our Mother.
We are one with the Earth,
We are one with each other
By our lives, by our birth,
We are one,
We are one,
We are one.
