Womens warrior song

[@dollyablitt95]

This song came to Elder Martina Saw̓t Pierre of the Lil'wat First Nation in BC over 30 years ago. These are her words in from an even in BC in 20 “I was in a sweat lodge 29 years ago, and I was praying because my daughter at the time became a single mother. When it was my turn to pray this song was what my prayer was and it sounded very familiar to me. I don’t know where I heard it before or if I have heard it at all. But I was crying out for help, so when we sing this song the first little verse is calling, calling for the higher powers, calling for the energy because it's there. Sometimes we forget to call. These first fewlines, and it doesn’t go very fast, are calling for the love of the universe, our greater power to come and look at me. I am just a lonely human being asking for help. And that is what it is to carry on every time we call. Every time we call, we call in all directions, we call for our ancestors, we call for our spiritual leaders who have gone before us and that is where the strength will come, the energy for us to stand together and overcome all of our issues. Overcome everything that we have inherited from residential schools, from the impact of the colonial system. Our women warriors need to stand together to protect our young mothers, our young children. And the men need to come up and be warriors and protect the communities. That is what I pray for today. …. I am marching today for that balance of life and peace for the other generations. When we talk about our seven generations, it's time for our drums, time foreach and every one of us to find our own song that will bring that energy of peace and love to ourselves and to those around us. Because if you radiate that love and peace it's going to attract others.” kzbin.info/www/bejne/iJa8ZqV3ra91gM0 teaching by Ramona Big Head.

Such a beautiful song of strength. And with the men and boys circling around protecting the women and girls it brings tears to my eyes. Our society desperately needs this understanding of balance and harmony between the men and the women.
