lirik lagu burning times – rumors of the big wave
[verse 1]
in the cool of the evening they used to gather
‘neath the stars in the meadow circled near an old oak tree
at the times appointed by the seasons of the earth
and the phases of the moon
in the center stood a woman
equal with the others and respected for her worth
one of many we call the witches
the healers and the teachers of the wisdom of the earth
and the people grew through the knowledge she gave them
herbs to heal their bodies, spells to make their spirits whole
can’t you hear them chanting healing incantations?
calling forth the wise ones, celebrating in dance and song
[chorus]
isis, astarte, diana, hecate, demeter, kali, inanna
isis, astarte, diana, hecate, demeter, kali, inanna
isis, astarte, diana, hecate, demeter, kali, inanna
[verse 2]
there were those who came to power through domination
and they bonded in the worship of a dead man on a cross
they sought control of the common people
by demanding allegiance to the church of rome
and the pope declared an inquisition
it was war against the women whose power they feared
in this holocaust against the nature people
nine million european women died
and the tale is told of those who by the hundreds
holding together chose their death in the sea
while chanting the praises of the mother goddess
a refusal of betrayal, women were dying to be free
[instrumental break]
[chorus]
isis, astarte, diana, hecate, demeter, kali, inanna
isis, astarte, diana, hecate, demeter, kali, inanna
isis, astarte, diana, hecate, demeter, kali, inanna
isis, astarte, diana, hecate, demeter, kali, inanna
[verse 3]
now the earth is a witch and the men still burn her
(isis, astarte, diana, hecate, demeter, kali, inanna)
stripping her down with mining and the poisons of their war
(isis, astarte, diana, hecate, demeter, kali, inanna)
still to us the earth is a healer, a teacher, a mother
(isis, astarte, diana, hecate, demeter, kali, inanna)
a weaver of a web of light that keeps us all alive
(isis, astarte, diana, hecate, demeter, kali, inanna)
she gives us the vision to see through the chaos
(isis, astarte, diana, hecate, demeter, kali, inanna)
she gives us the courage, it is our will to survive
(isis, astarte, diana, hecate, demeter, kali, inanna)
