The Elders to a person,<br />
Whether women or a man,<br />
Shared a common truth,<br />
One truth to understand,<br />
That the spirit of the people<br />
is equal<br />
To the Power of The Land.<br />
The mother of us all<br />
The sacred Mother Earth,<br />
Is constant in her giving,<br />
And perpetual in her birth,<br />
In meadows and in fields,<br />
Where weeds and flowers grow,<br />
She conceives the summer showers,<br />
And spawns the winter snows.<br />
In forests and in mountains,<br />
She gives the birds that fly,<br />
Every type of wing,<br />
Then coaxes the wind to join,<br />
In harmony when they begin to sing.<br />
In brooks and streams,<br />
And rivers as they flow,<br />
She generates the dreams,<br />
And makes the fires glow.<br />
And in every creature,<br />
Large and small,<br />
She buries gems,<br />
Of wisdom in them all,<br />
And those that honour,<br />
Her creations,<br />
And acknowledge her grand design,<br />
Are given the templates,<br />
Of the sacred<br />
And the patterns of the divine.<br />
And then the certain knowledge,<br />
This to understand<br />
That the spirit of the people<br />
is equal<br />
To the Power of The Land.<br />
