This is a cross-post from the Vegas Vortex Tribe
For all who are interested:
Here is a link to the three-part chant that I taught at Mayfire 2008.
www.box.net/shared/92vbkyqsk0
I know that it stretches the musical boundaries of what many of us are used to in circle, but when you hear it all together I hope that you'll see that it is not really all that difficult.
It was co-written by myself and by the Lovely (and Talented) Samina Oshun (May her joy be unending!)
It is free to download and share, though I retain all rights for the lyrics, music, and recording.
I look forward to seeing some of you at Fires Rising!
Jay
The lyrics are:
Now is the time for transformation
Here is the place for transformation
Fire is the power of transformation
Bring it to the Fire!
We transform our lead to purest gold.
Transform our lead to purest gold!
Surrender to the fire
Surrender to the flow
Release into the mystery
Feel your spirit start to glow!
Surrender to the fire
It hold the golden key
Unlock the chains that bind you
Dance and set your spirit free!

Thanks for posting this. Keep up the beautiful work you are doing. :) -
