She danced alone upon the waves Alone upon the water Alone upon the water She took the north wind by the tail Caressed it till she felt the serpent scale He coiled around her limbs divine Her dance as wild as fire Her dance as wild as fire She had created sea from sky And knew her Lover loved her movements Once she divided the sky from the ocean All of creation was then set in motion Becoming dove upon the sea She laid the egg that held eternity The serpent spiraled round its form And cradled in its magic Cradled in its magic The sacred vessel soon grew warm And split to open all existence Out of it tumbled the Earth and her creatures Rivers and mountains and forests and beaches Out of it Sun Out of it Moon She danced alone upon the waves And born of Chaos was existence And born of Chaos was existence
