Mother Cluny

Mother Cluny rock me in your womb
Mother Cluny rock me in your womb
Take the fear and pain I feel
and turn them into tears that heal
Mother Cluny rock me in your womb
Mother Cluny suckle me at your breast
Mother Cluny suckle me at your breast
Tend the seed that love has sewn
in the temple of my flesh and bone
Mother Cluny suckle me at your breast
Mother Cluny forge me in your fire
Mother Cluny forge me in your fire
that I may shed this dead old skin
that I may light the fire within
Mother Cluny forge me in your fire
Mother Cluny clothe and send me forth
Mother Cluny clothe and send me forth
to be present at the birth
of the new Heaven, of the new Earth
Mother Cluny clothe and send me...
clothe and send me forth
