[From the "Second Chants" liner notes: "This song tells the story of the
youngest brother in the fairy tale 'The 12 Wild Swans,' who is only half
rescued from enchantment, and so lives with one human arm and one swan wing."
Read Starhawk's version of the story in "Circle Round." The Grimm version,
"The Six Swans," is in the Stories archive.]
I am but one
I am but half and half
I move between the worlds
I bring your message to the world
