First Mountain Mother

Strange music echoes in vale of my heart,
uncanny melody of timeless passion
that swells from pulsing bodies of our souls,
so I walk out in crowded streets of Roma
where Gallae priests in long colorful robes
dance wildly to celebrate Megalesia.

Eyes flashing bright with timeless stars of truth,
Magna Mater Cybele, Mountain Mother,
rides throne inside four-wheeled bronze chariot
with humble shepherd Attis at her side,
so I approach and offer fruit of love
which she accepts with bright seraphic smile.

When Cybele presides on judgment throne
with grand rite in Temple of Victory,
my heart swells brave with joyful pride of faith
that ancient spirit of her soul remains
glowing strong in heart of America
that urges us to build Heaven on Earth.

Brave Aura, daughter of wise Artemis,
filled with holy spirit of Dionysus,
bore our first Mountain Mother Cybele
by Star Lake on misty Mount Dindymus,
who reigned as oracle at Pessinus
in temple Midas built with hands of gold.

When her descendant Ilus, son of Tros,
built citadel of Troia with high walls,
her Phrygian Spirit of noble courage
flowed with Aeneas to the Seven Hills
where Romulus built great city of Roma
that shines from heart of Mother Cybele.

From Star Lake on misty Mount Dindymus
immortal spirit of Cybele springs
to nourish her descendants with grand vision
for ruling Heaven through organized rites
so we confirm our soul with self-control
when building empire of First Mountain Mother.

From Pessinus to Troia, then to Roma,
through Londinium and Vasintonia,
grand spirit of Cybele sprouts again
as Goddess of Justice and Liberty
who guides our democratic way of life
where all are equal in America.

As we dance to celebrate Megalesia,
and drink bitter-sweet wine of Dionysus,
we honor soul of Mother Cybele
who teaches us to transform pain to joy
by generating life before we die
since we accept that death will take us all.
