Title: Every Woman Born
Lyrics by: Ruth Barrett
Tune: original
Date: 1981
Source:
Recorded on: "Aeolus," Ruth Barrett and Cyntia Smith, 1981; "Music Celebrating the Goddess," Triple Crescent, 1994
Subject: Goddess
Oh lady of the glowing moon
Oh maiden of the light
I know thee by a thousand names
Oh mistress of the night
And like a songbird in her hand
She has my heart in thrall
Setting me free to fly the sky
The mother of us all
Diana moves with strength and will
To bend the arrow's bow
Sending it true into the heart
Of all I see and do
For she is every woman born
The mother of all life
We must remember who we are
We must take back the night
