The Song of the Seven Directions

Welcome Grandfathers of the East

Gateway to the Spirit, yellow, fire, heat.

Home of the lover, soaring eagle of the breeze.

Welcome Grandfathers of the East

Welcome Grandfathers of the South.

Place of emotions, water and the mouse.

Red of the warrior that holds fear out.

Welcome Grandfathers of the South.

Welcome Grandfathers of the West.

Gateway to the body with healing earth blessed.

Grizzly bear, magician, black shadows test.

Welcome Grandfathers of the West.

Welcome Grandfathers of the North

Gratitude, air and the mind door.

White buffalo, and the wise king’s lore.

Welcome Grandfathers of the North

Welcome Grandfather of the blue sky.

Gifts of the sun and the rain bring life.

Creative energies be our guide.

Welcome Grandfather of the sky.

Welcome Grandmother of the green earth.

Place of beginnings. Place of birth.

Creatures live in harmony. All have worth.

 Welcome Grandmother of the earth.

Welcome Spirit of the Center.

The place of calm and balance we enter.

The golden light of the Inner Mentor.

Welcome Spirit of the Center.
