Mother of Duality
By elder Ormeld Burwar, Year 1107
Listen to my words you young ones!
The earth, the ground, and the roots have spoken to us
They have reminded us of the ancient way
You too will grow and understand
In this place are vile creatures and demons from the deeps
In this place grow fruits and flowers sweet to taste
But it is the Mother of Duality who brings them together
Bound together in her arms, the whole is made strong
You too must bind together
Bind your hot and cold, bind your fear and love
If you cannot, you will be taken up in another
Who then can help you?
The growling bear will fight, for his stomach is hungry
The slug will grovel, for he fears the sun
But to you who sees them both, turn not to one side
And you will walk with The Mother
