Shaina Noll - Songlines Lyrics

They walked and sang the earth and sky
They named the blades of grass
Spoke softly as they passed

Their footsteps shaped the darkest lakes
They breathed the ocean tides
Left mountains in their stride

Their words were woven into song
They named the names they passed along
The ancient story of the earth
Songlines.

We walk and sing the names they gave
We name the grains of sand
We whisper to the land

Raising voices to the sky
We celebrate the earth
As she was sung at birth

The spirit lives within the song
In naming names in passing on
The stories told in sacred rhyme
Songlines.

And if the Songlines should be broken
Man and earth would be estranged
If the dreamtime be forgotten
Who would sing the wind and rain?

As caretakers who guard the flame
In sacred trust we sing the names
Our lives are short
Our time is long
We are her voice
She is our song

We walk and sing the earth and sky
(We walk and sing the earth and sky )
We name the blades of grass
(We name the blades of grass)
Speak softly as we pass ...
(Speak softly as we pass ...)

Our footsteps shaped the darkest lakes
We breathed the ocean tides
The mountains in our stride

Our words were woven into song
We named the names we passed along
The ancient story of the earth
Songlines.

As caretakers who guard the flame
In sacred trust we sing the names
Our lives are short
Our time is long
We are her voice
We are her voice
We are her voice
She is our song….
