saying names as
the drum beats
enter the circle where you belong
here creator hears your song
whispering names, speak from your heart
stirring your soul
with deep emotion
here a cerulean sky, voice of devotion
from your tongue a host of places
rolling hills, lush green countryside
here in paradise, nature your guide
once the rhythm is
steady & strong
offer the names of those you love
here they will fly on wings of a dove
carrying a message
into the heavens
names of the ancestors dance in the sky
here in this world stand you and I
saying names as the drum beats
enter the circle where you belong
here creator hears your song
