“Vor“ - Bill Sutton

Recorded at GAFilk 2002. Lyrics below. ------- Lyrics & Music: Bill Sutton Our world is the land and the land is our mother, Through lost generations we’ve stood by her side. We are the sons of the men who protected her, We are the daughters of women who’ve died. CHORUS: Vor is the name we won from our fathers, Vor is the love that our mothers provide, Vor is the honor we share with our brothers, Vor is the duty that keeps us alive. We are the Names, and our Names are the promises Made to our ancestors when we were born. Three for the judges and Two for the people One when the Fates turn and make a new Lord. CHORUS Once we stood firm against disintegration Of our culture, our honor, our children, our core. Now that we stand in the light of the Universe How do we teach them the meaning of Vor? CHORUS Together alone against people and planet, Each generation encompassing more. Kos
