Summer solstice - a celebration of life and light on Earth. As the energy of the Sun reaches its peak in the northern hemisphere, Curawaka releases the beautiful ‘Freedom Song’ into the world, from their forthcoming album ‘Dreamtime’ .
Modern folk with a celtic nordic twist, Freedom Song is a song perfect for dancing barefoot in a field under the sun, singing for freedom, joy, our precious heart relations, and celebrating the gift of life itself.
“I am a forever optimist and a believer in mysterious ways. I stubbornly believe the sweet winds of the invisible world will continue to whisper wisdom and truth to our hearts, and gently stir our rigid stagnation, so that the memories in our bones begin to sing again. I hope those memories of our true purpose will pour out of the music as pure medicine to heal our collective amnesia, and make us long for and respond to, seek and defend, that which is true, good and sacred.
‘Freedom Song’ is the anthem of hope, a joyous ode to the vision of that new world, the chant of the wild free spirit calling its destiny - to go home and be a sacred world family.” - Anna Curawaka

LYRICS
A moment in time
When all is aligned
when the mystery moves
and the morning star shines
when the songbirds sing
the bells of freedom ring
at the hour of dawn
the new world is born
See the eagle fly
Condor by his side
All beast and bird
Will finally be heard
at the hour of dawn
the new world is born
Feel the tide rising
as we weave the horizon
the wise ones say
It’s a good time to pray
that the day has come
when we hear the song
when we feel we belong
when we gather as one
With the first rays of sun
The new world has begun
Prayers of the past
The dream of those who didn’t last
Prophecies of old
will guide the world home
And we people vow to stand
with our hearts in our hands
to be true to the Earth
peacekeepers of the land
We will rise to be
a global family
we will rise to be
united and free
We´re sons and daughters
we’re mothers and fathers
sister and brother
walking each other
Home, home
The day has come
we hear the song
we feel we belong
we are gathered as one
We’re sons and daughters
we’re mothers and fathers
sister and brother
we’re walking each other
Home, home
