LYRICS
Sing, my sisters, sing
Sing out loud of all you bring
For what you sing is what you are
And you’re wise in the ways of the woman by far
Wise in the ways of the woman by far
You’re wise in her ways
That’s what you are
Dance, my sisters, dance
Trance and prance and make romance
For how you dance is what you are
And you’re wise in the ways of the woman by far
Wise in the ways of the woman by far
You’re wise in her ways
That’s what you are
Speak, my sisters, speak
Speak out loud and don’t be meek
For how you speak is what you are
And you’re wise in the ways of the woman by far
Wise in the ways of the woman by far
You’re wise in her ways
That’s what you are
Dream, my sisters, dream
Dream of all the love you’d seed
For what you dream is what you are
And you’re wise in the ways of the woman by far
Wise in the ways of the woman by far
You’re wise in her ways
That’s what you are
Bleed, my sisters, bleed
Releasing all you do not need
For how you bleed is what you are
And you’re wise in the ways of the woman by far
Wise in the ways of the woman by far
You’re wise in her ways
That’s what you are
Cry, my sisters, cry
Shed your tears til they run dry
For how you cry is what you are
And you’re wise in the ways of the woman by far
Wise in the ways of the woman by far
You’re wise in her ways
That’s what you are
Birth, my sisters, birth walk
Draw your strength up from the Earth
For how you birth is what you are
And you’re wise in the ways of the woman by far
Wise in the ways of the woman by far
You’re wise in her ways
That’s what you are
Pray, my sisters, pray
Giving thanks for each new day
For how you pray is what you are
And you’re wise in the ways of the woman by far
Wise in the ways of the woman by far
You’re wise in her ways
That’s what you are
Smile, my sisters, smile
Let your heart sing for a while
for how you smile is what you are
And you’re wise in the ways of the woman by far
Wise in the ways of the woman by far
You’re wise in her ways
That’s what you are
So love my sisters love
Like the sun’s own rays shine from above
For how you love is what you are
And you’re wise in the ways of the woman by far
Wise in the ways of the woman by far
You’re wise in her ways
That’s what you are
Wise in the ways of the woman by far…
You’re wise in her ways
That’s
what
you
are….
