Down to the Sea
written by Diana Hildebrand-Hull
Native American Song



The river is flowing
Flowing and Growing
The river is flowing
Down to the sea.

Mother Earth, carry me
Your child I'll always be
Mother Earth, carry me
Back to the sea

The moon is wailing
Waiting and wailing
The moon is waiting
For us to be free.

Sister moon watch over me
Your sister I shall be
Sister moon watch over me
Until we are free.

The hags they are sailing
Sailing and waiting
The hags they are sailing
Over the sea.

Sisters, go to Sicily
A revolution there will be.
Sisters, go to Sicily
Over the sea.


The last verse is added from the Ravnstrup Women's Peace Camp songbook.
