Hussey (on 161/93) To: All Subj: new chant I wrote this chant for the 20th anniversary of the founding of NROOGD (isn't it interesting how the 20th anniversaries of the Summer of Love, the SCA, Star Trek, and NROOGD all came in close proximity to each other? That was a busy five years!); the lady co-running the ritual asked for a chant that meant, "We've been doing this for 20 years and we're going to keep on going". But since it's equally useful for other things, I thought I'd share it in case people can use it: (min) | | | ____ | | 4 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 4 5 7 | 1 1 1 2 | 1 7 1 2 | 3 3 5 4 3 | 3 4 3 4 | We are |rooted, we are|growing, We are|welling, we__ are|flowing, We are| | | ____ | || | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | || | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | || 5 5 4 3 | 3 2 1 7 | 1 1 3 2 1 | 7 1 || bending, we are|blowing, We are|lightning, we__ are|glowing. || The sequence of the words is easy to remember if you think of them as being in elemental order, heaviest to lightest: earth, water, air, fire.
