Shhh, listen. Can you hear that?
 
Can you hear the drums?
Are they drumming for war?
Are they drumming for peace?
What are they drumming for?
 
Do you feel it?
Do you feel the beat?
Is it waking the soul? Out of a sound sleep?

Is it you?
You, to whom the drum calls?
Beckoning to join the circle?
To help heal one and all?
 
Look, do you see it?
Do you see the drummers feet?
Joining the circle in rhythm?
Saying prayers so sweet?

What prayer is this they say?
Is it for all great and small?
Is it to help Mother Earth's healing?
Is it in Thanks to Creator for All?
Will you join in the circle?
Will you answer the Thunder of the Drum?
Will you hold onto hope in peace?
United, we are all one.
