dance dance dance
dance the trata in your
red white and black garb
dive down dive down
dive underground
dance dance dance
dance the trata
for bread and pomegranate
dance as we have
for millennia
as is carved
on the tomb
of the dancing women
dance a zigzag
dance the weave of a basket
dance the stars and spirals
inwards
outwards
enter the labyrinth
with the young ones leading
dance as if your life depends
on the dance
sing with the old ones
sing out your strong voices
voices that hold the world
sing like swallows
twittering to bring spring
dance dance dance
sing sing sing
dance the trata
sing the spring
wonderful!
