To the crematorium of illusions Burning the pillars of power and privilege She dances Unhindered flames purify versions of vice and hate The smoke purges sick structures of oppression She dances With the flow of her seasons will The dance of death and life and death and life Her rhythm holds no reason for he who cannot dance Within her passion for life and her honour of death The unseen Majesty of love The ultimate restorer of righteousness Grounded within her timeless grace And ever blazing fire of life-giving abundance Planting the humble seed of consciousness within the heart From a love ignited by the calling of the truth More intense than the fires that consume A love more fierce than her fury Defender of the light, bearer of the truth From the darkness she rises to rebirth the sovereign law “Oh glorious Kali From the sanctity of your omnipresent love Evoke the alchemy of change And rebirth a braver new world” In the name of death In the name of life And in the name of love She dances.
