My own take on Wyndreth Berginsdottir’s (Karen Kahan) 1990 Song “Savage Mother”

Chorus: I am my children’s Savage Mother,

One who walks barefoot under the moon,

I am my children’s Savage Mother,

I won’t remain silent nor cater to goons.

+

My children’s mother is a savage,

She sees the truth of ancient flesh stones,

The awareness of cats, the chorus of nature,

In the dancing of fire and vibration of stones.

Chorus:

My children’s mother dances at daylight,

Opens her heart to the light of the sun,

Is One with the stars and connects with the planets,

And knows she can reach them whenever she choose.

Chorus:

We are brought forth from Spirit to Matter,

Come to this world through choice of our own,

Deep in our Soul the old songs are waking,

Let’s sing ours with Joy by light of the moon.
