Sacred Ground
Journey Through Sacred Ground: A Melodic Reflection
Lyrics
Di-dee-didley, di-dee-dee, di-dee-didley, di-dee-dough
Repetitive vocalizations, possibly representing a rhythmic or meditative state.
Di-dee-didley, di-dee-dee, di-dee-didley, di-dee-dough
Continuation of rhythmic vocalizations, setting a tone for the song.
Me wiggle, me waggle, me shake all my bones
Expressing physical movement and energy through words.
With more to unravel, I travel these shores
Life's complexities and experiences, suggesting a journey with more to discover.
And into my ears the waves they do pound
Immersive experience with nature, specifically the sound of waves reaching the ears.
Rolling the stone into sand on the Sacred
The act of transforming a stone into sand, possibly symbolizing change or evolution.
Ground, Sacred Ground, Sacred
Repeated mention of "Sacred Ground," emphasizing its significance.
Di-dee-didley, di-dee-dee, di-dee-didley, di-dee-dough
Repetition of vocalizations, maintaining the rhythmic pattern.
Di-dee-didley, di-dee-dee, di-dee-didley, di-dee-dough
Continuation of rhythmic vocalizations, reinforcing the song's structure.
So many were buried before I was born
Recognition of those who came before, acknowledging history and heritage.
My spirit is marked, it could never be torn
A resilient spirit that cannot be easily broken or damaged.
To the flag that waves green, I'll be ever bound
Commitment to a symbol (flag) and a sense of enduring loyalty.
Til I lie with my brothers and sisters in the Sacred
Anticipation of joining ancestors, emphasizing the sacredness of the resting place.
Ground, Sacred Ground, Sacred Ground, Sacred
Reiteration of the significance of "Sacred Ground."
Di-dee-didley, di-dee-dee, di-dee-didley, di-dee-dough
Repetition of vocalizations, maintaining the song's rhythm.
Di-dee-didley, di-dee-dee, di-dee-didley, di-dee-dough
Continuation of rhythmic vocalizations, reinforcing the musical structure.
The past is full of sorrow and woe
Reflection on a history filled with pain and suffering.
So many have struggled to reap what they sow
Recognition of struggles and the consequences of one's actions.
The soul of the island cannot be held down
Indicating the indomitable nature of the island's soul, resilient and enduring.
The song sings forever from the Sacred
Perpetual nature of a song emanating from the sacred ground, symbolizing eternal resonance.
Ground, Sacred Ground, Sacred Ground, Sacred Ground, Sacred
Repeated emphasis on the sacredness of the ground and its enduring importance.
Di-dee-didley, di-dee-dee, di-dee-didley, di-dee-dough
Repetition of vocalizations, maintaining the rhythmic and meditative quality.
Di-dee-didley, di-dee-dee, di-dee-didley, di-dee-dough
Continuation of rhythmic vocalizations, bringing the song to a close.
