Walk the Earth by Gaea

(From Tape Three)

I went down to a forest
And I sat under a tree
A wise old man came
From the Earth
and this is what 
He said to me.

He said I have been to the sacred well
Mother Earth has a story to tell
She said you humans are relentless.
Never ceasing to challenge
The Earth,
If you do not renounce your ways,
The Earthworm upon you
Will put a curse

She said walk the Earth,
She said feel the Earth,
She said feel its heart beating
She said feel it breathe.

She said your earth is alive
She said your earth is alive
He said she said he said
he said she said.

Pen-y-fen by Richard  &  Ceilidh 

(From Tape Three)

I was walking upon a mountain one day
When I felt the sound
It formed my eye deep inside from the sky
Into the ground

At the top there was a crowd of people
with the same look in their eye
I know we all recognised that feeling from
~ another place another time

(musical bit - dooby dooby doo dooby dooby doo dooby dooby doo dum)

I am a whale
far out to sea
I sing a poem of harmony
harmony

I am the wind
gentle and strong
I live forever
never the same
never the same

Life is very different in space
Sunlight is our water there
Fill up your bodies with light
As we learn to fly
~ we are changing

It was always meant to be
that we would wake up to our truth
~ then we'd share it with our hearts and minds
on the Earth our temple
~ Temple

I love the Earth for I am a tree
I love the spirit of you and me
~ ~ ~ this sets us free
The Earth is a temple

Dear Tribal Voices,
greetings hope all is well – have a good pilton if you go, I shall be somewhere else peaceful and green ~ hopefully Canada working on an organic farm!
Can’t wait for t-voices to come out – promises to be a good one
~ see you at some point in the year again
love Richard
PS here are the words for my song – hope you like them!
I ought to add that this song speaks of the profound recognition of all life as one and the whale (as the creature which keeps all earthly knowledge in her songs) is describing this planet in communication with other galactic bodies
~ Mountains are beacons eminating consciousness to the lower earthly levels
~ Trees ~ well need I say more
love and cake

Alex – Extracts from Battle of Dongas (c)1997.

(From Tape Three)

Crops grew ripe
The tribe grew strong
Fires were lit
Beacons blazed bright
Many dancers danced
Many chants were chanted
Many songs were sung
Many pipes were piped

Merry were the tribe
They cared for each other
Strong in their spirits
These sisters and brothers
Vows they made at times of feasting
To guard the land against the strange ones
To stand fast and to fearlessly face
Those monsters from an alien race

Thus they vowed by wood and water
By air and fire and things of power
And the dragon danced to the sound of their laughter

A Kiss Goodbye by Paul Gill

(From Tape Two)

It grieves me to leave you this way,
Or should I say, I told you this would happen some day.
If I filled you with some false belief,
then I hope it’s within your heart to forgive
{chorus: }

So kiss me and wave me goodbye, my dear;
Hold me and try not to cry, my dear
By morning I’ll be far away from here,
So kiss me and wave me goodbye.
I’m back on the road again, back to my roving ways,
And I might pass by here some other day,
And if we should see eye to eye, perhaps then
Things would happen again by and by.
{chorus}
I’ve packed all my things
And I’m starting to think of tomorrow
And what it will bring to me.
Yesterday’s gone and the future has come;
We must learn from what’s done
And carry it on…
To I don’t know where or when,
So many places and faces, I cannot say if or when
I’ll be coming back here again, until then
Let’s make this the final farewell.
{chorus}
I seek out some company when the time’s right for me,
But with every meeting comes a parting of ways.
And its not always easy for those who come close to me,
That’s the price for my living this way.
{chorus}

Searching Song by Laura  (c)

(From Tape Two)

oooooh oooh ooooh ooooh
{tweet tweet}
I’m trying to find you
even though I know you’re not there
I’ve walked far to find you
but I knew you’d be there
searching through shadows
the signs that would tell be where
when I find you, will you let me slip in your skin
I’ll climb inside you, then let the magic begin

Peace Be by Gaea

(From Tape Two)

peace be
peace be
peace be to the north
peace be to the east
peace be to the south
and peace be the west

and peace be above
and peace below
and peace be within
and peace without

peace be to the underworld
peace be to the over realm
peace be to this realm upon which I dwell…

and peace be the stars
the sun and the moon
and peace be
to this earth upon which I dwell

for I’m spell bound to you
I am trapped in your web
like no other
I am spell bound to you
to the seasons that ebb
like no other
no other
peace be
peace be
all around

Impressions of Fairmile by Celidh

(From Tape Two)
High like the dreams
creep??? and whispers howling healing..
the breeze
high like my dreams
sleep and waken the difference between us
your/the seed
faces facing for ?? seen
never shifting ever seeing and passing painting
take me in the air
there is all that we knew could be there
thickening in the air
is a love that we always will share
somewhere
through things we see
crazy wonders of all of the dreaming/ers ?? and we
strange we might be
so lift you eyes open
and try and see what it is that we see
cos strangers is as strangers does
and is it strange to really see feel something
and what??? they know (and??) when they don’t know nothing
how can say you do when you don’t hear the cries
no you don’t hear the cries
please help me
please hear me
please see me
please feel me
please heal me
please .??. me
cos if you don’t then there’ll be nothing for you
we’ll be gone the things you think you need???
all all the things you think you cant live without
well I’ll pick you up and then there’ll just be me again
is that what you really want
is that what you really want??
you ?? think I
think on it ???
so high, like the trees
creep an ?????? whispers are howling and healing
the breeze
high like a dream
sleep and waken
the difference between
no seam

Solsbury by Lee Tree  

(From Tape Two)

Spring equinox,
and Solsbury called me from Catherine’s hill;
and On that sunlit Spring morn, on wings of dragon,
to Sulis spring in Larkhall I was borne.
and There upon those sacred slopes
We found a wholeness in word and deed;
and as our ancestors had,
made our stand;
Side by side on the crying land.
Spring equinox to Beltain fire:
What race is this,
that pulls it’s children through barbed wire?
and From the emerald crown of birch and ash
We watched their machines as they tore their gash;
Stripping sections from our mother’s scalp;
pure hatred spat from yellow jackets’ eyes
As they tore us from the trees:
Divorced from all that’s pure in them:
their love for life, their dreams.
To learn to love these loveless men
Is one of the hardest things to do:
But their hatred is passed on to them –
don’t let it infect you.
learn to love
