omorka(Random: the black silk cord on my pentacle just snapped when I took it off. Now I have to fix up anothe one with that weird tubular silk stuff, since I don't have any rat-tail cord. Damn.)
Okay, the following is a list of the chants for which I can find no attribution, or that are listed as "traditional" or "Traditional Native American" with no tribe listed:
Autumn Time
The Earth, the Air, the Fire, the Water
The Earth Is Our Mother
Ancient Mother, I Hear You Calling
Round And Round The Earth Is Turning
Sisters, Now Our Meeting Is Over (this is either Shaker or Quaker, but at any rate the author isn't known)
Rise Up O Flame (actually, it has an author, but it's public domain now - he died in the 1600s)
Neesa, Neesa
I will Be Gentle With Myself
Lo Yisa Goy (otherwise known as the A-O chant)
Oh Mama Bakudala
Dona Nobis Pacem
Earth My Body
The Circle Is Open But Unbroken
Building Bridges Between Our Divisions
I Am a Circle
I Am a Strong Woman
We Are the Changers
Simple Gifts (again, Shaker, and public domain now as long as we don't do Copland!)
Humble Yourself In the Arms of the Wild
The following are chants for which we would need permissions, but I think we can acquire them:
Full Moonlight Dance
Dark Of the Moon
Kore Chant (She Changes Everything She Touches)
No End To the Circle
We All Come From the Goddess (also We All Come From the Sun God; the tune is Z's and no one knows who wrote the words)
Hoof And Horn
The following are chants I'd like to include, but for which we'd need permissions I don't know how to get:
Isis, Astarte (aka the Goddess Name Chant)
We Are a Circle
I'd really, really like to include the last two, but if we can't - even if one of the three authors I think we can get permission from doesn't give it - there's enough in just that first list to make a CD of!
