yesterday it was ancient
today, it is forever new
by tomorrow, it will be timeless
___________________________________
The beauty of gamelan is in its staccato pride,
the sense of calm as you play to breathe
the sense of calm as you play to breathe
and breathe to play a song from the past
_________
to know me
to love me
to accept me
you must understand
i am an island girl
and the rhythmic call
i am an island girl
and the rhythmic call
of the bronze orchestra
seduces my ancestors
within me
____________
dream catcher
in the fading notes
of an ancient song
I awaken
____________
dream catcher
in the fading notes
of an ancient song
I awaken
