Title: Kore Chant
Lyrics by: Lauren Liebling and Starhawk
Tune: original
Date: 1987
Source:
Recorded on: "Chants: Ritual Music," Reclaiming Collective, 1987 (Serpentine Music, P.O. Box 2564, Sebastopol, CA 95473)
Subject: Goddess, Energy and Change
Chorus: She changes everything she touches
and everything she touches changes.
(In Spanish: Ella cambia todo lo que toca
Y todo lo que toca cambia.)
Her name cannot be spoken, her face is not forgotten
Her power is to open, her promise can never be broken.
Our seed she deeply buries, she weaves the thread of seasons
Her secret darkness carries, she loves beyond all reason.
All sleeping seeds she awakens, the rainbow is her token
Now winter's power is taken, with love all chains are broken.
Everything lost is found again, in a new form, in a new way
Everything hurt is healed again, in a new time, in a new day.
Bright as a flower and strong as a tree, with our love and with our rage
Breaking our chains so we can be free, with our love and with our rage.
We are changers, everything we touch can change
Change is, touch is, change us, touch us.
(Cambia - Toca, Toca - Cambia)
