Mother Songtext
von Yaima

One Morning as the mist was lifting
O′re the mountain side
Deep within the valley
Where the river carved her lines
I hurried up the hillside
To catch the birth day
And waited on the rocks there
To meet my heart again

When finally the dawn broke free
Heard a voice return
Said "do not fear the changes
We've all been there before"
And as my soul poured out
The salt in my tears fell
And added to the lime stone
One story of this tale


I went out to the holler
To give her back this song
Sang for all my ancestors
Waiting on the drum
They gave me every single nod
To turn my head in pain
Gave me almost every sense
Of courage I have gained

To now be handed all the reins
Of ages left behind
Choose to work in honor
Of the ones who′ve yet to come
For when their tiny feet meet
The earths golden shore
They will return the honor
And sing her song once more

They will return the honor
And sing her song once more
