Adamant Mother

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Centre of equal daughters Equal sons at your side All, all alike endear’d Grown, ungrown, young or old Strong, ample, fair Enduring in your bones Capable, rich Perennial as the Earth [Pre-Chorus] With Freedom in your hands With Law inside your breath With Love across your shoulders You hold us up again [Chorus] Equal daughters, equal sons ( बराबर? ) no, just one Equal daughters, equal sons You keep us standing strong Chair’d in time Chair’d in time Grand and sane You never fall behind [Verse 2] A table set for all A name for every face Your door is wide as dawn Your heart is older than ache You seat the broken in You seat the bold and bright You make the small feel seen You make the proud feel right [Pre-Chorus] With Freedom in your hands With Law inside your breath With Love across your shoulders You hold us up again [Chorus] Equal daughters, equal sons ( बराबर? ) no, just one Equal daughters, equal sons You keep us standing strong Chair’d in time Chair’d in time Grand and sane You never fall behind [Bridge] Seated in the marrow Seated through the storm A mother made of patience A fire that keeps us warm Not above us Not apart You are the wide old song Beating in the heart [Final Chorus] Equal daughters, equal sons ( बराबर? ) no, just one Equal daughters, equal sons You keep us standing strong Chair’d in time Chair’d in time Grand and sane You never fall behind Equal daughters, equal sons (All, all alike endear’d) Equal daughters, equal sons (Young or old, you hear us here)
