From the deserts to the mountains
From the mountains to the sea
All across the land and water
There’s a message to be free
We are wild and free; we are wild and free
From the deserts to the mountains
I call you back home to me
Hear the tale I have to tell you
That you are wild and free, that you are wild and free.
So many times I’ve tried to call you
From the mountains to the sea
And so many times I’ve tried to tell you
That you are wild and free, that you are wild and free.
Wild, wild and free; wild and free; wild and free; wild and free
So don’t try to find me ‘cross your shoulder
Don’t count the cycles that you see
I’ll be here when it’s all over
For you’ll be wild and free; for you’ll be wild and free
I am wild and free; I am wild and free
Wild, wild and free; wild and free; wild and free; wild and free
We are wild and free; we are wild and free.

Ravnos, Kam ta Shon ta Puv ta bakterimaskro zee...
Parava, Jal Parava, Parava, bakterimaskro zee.
Basically, these words mean bring us spiritual transformation. They ask for help for our spirits to become more magical, clean and a little more empowered.

Lay the cards on the ground and we’ll see where we’re heading
There are birds flying high, trees all standing proud
The smile on your face says you know the path we’re treading
‘Cos you’re born of the wind
All the silver and gold never brought you your freedom
But you know how these can take you to realms in other worlds
Don’t look back, don’t look down, just travel on with the seasons
‘Cos you’re born of the wind
So fly, fly to our old lands
And dream, dream of giants in the sky
And never betray our soul, ‘cos it’ll take you on and on forever
My child of the wind
Once long ago was a prince of old legend
He was brave, he was strong, and followed the old ways
He looked up to the stars above and was proud to remember
He was born of the wind
So fly, fly to our ancient lands
And dream, dream of giants in the sky
And never betray our soul, ‘cos it’ll take you on and on forever
My child of the wind

Jasperger - Drums

One I am stirring, two I am moving, three I am spinning around
The rhythm flows to me, around me, and through me
My soul is beginning to pound.
I know that the rhythm has something
Its pulse puts a spell on me
It tells me at least I know one thing
Rhythm once a day, keeps the blues away
I can hear the drums, I can hear the drums coming across the way
I can hear the drums, all over the landscape
Can you hear the drums, can you hear the drums coming across the way
Can you hear the drums, all over the world.
Don’t try to stir me and don’t try to move me unless I am spinning around
The rhythm flows to me, around me and through me
My soul is beginning to pound.
I know that the rhythm has something
Its pulse puts a spell on me
It tells me at least there is one thing
Rhythm once a day will keep the blues away
I can hear the drums, I can hear the drums coming across the way
I can hear the drums, all over the landscape
Can you hear the drums, can you hear the drums coming across the way
Can you hear the drums, all over the world.
Who makes the rainbow colours sit so neatly in the sky
Who makes the thunder & lightning fill my ears and blind my eyes
Who shares the seasons? Who has the power to hypnotise?
Take me away
Who cares if people try to make a world that’s never here
Who gives a toss if shadows make a deal of all their fear
The sinking ship is ready and that’s all I need to hear
Take me away
I can hear the drums…

Chakanee, chakanee
Giving an ancient light to all who see
Living a life we can't know
Destiny will follow the paths we weave
Only chakanee will know
Chakanee, chakanee
Chakanee, chakanee
Shining a light across the big dark sky
Dreaming dreams away
Bringing ancient memories into your eyes
Dreaming dreams that stay
Chakanee, chakanee

The tossing of hair awakens my libido
The flying of skirts has me crying out for more
Take me to my atchin tan and vardo
I’m ready if you wanna lay me across the floor
I see your body dancing in the sunlight
I love to see your form against the moon
This mad desire’s with me all night
I’m ready for love, you’d better come and get me soon
You gotta lotta Gypsy
It’s in your soul
What a lotta Gypsy
When you rock and roll
Early in the morning
You rock my zee
Gypsy, Gypsy,
Come to me.
I love it when I see your shawl falling off your shoulder
I love it when I see the fire burning in your eyes
The passion in your sexy body bowls me over
I wanna lie with you under the open skies
I need to keep my crazy mind together
I’m so taken with you that I don’t know what to do
I want this spell with you to last forever
Gypsy magic led me straight to you
You gotta lotta Gypsy
Bangles and beads
What a lotta Gypsy
Ah, yes please
Early in the morning
You rock my zee
Gypsy, Gypsy,
Come to me.
I love you in the sunlight, love you in the moonlight, love you in the spring and fall,
Love you when when you’re walking, love you when you’re talking, love you any way at all,
When your hips are moving, when your lips are parting, just give me it all,
Gypsy, Gypsy.
You gotta lotta Gypsy
It’s in your soul
What a lotta Gypsy
When you rock and roll
Early in the morning
You rock my zee
Gypsy, Gypsy,
Come to me.
You gotta lotta Gypsy
Gold and red
What a lot of Gypsy
In my bed
Early in the morning
You rock my zee
Gypsy, Gypsy,
Come to me.
Ah, yes please

Mo Kam (My Kam, the sun spirit)
Avali, tachiben (yes, you carry the truth of what you are)
These lyrics are repeated several times...

Oh, Devlesko Mama, Ava Sonnakai, (Sacred Earth Mother, you're gold-dust)
She is my kushti mama, she is my Gypsy dai. (my sexy earth)
I know a kushti mama, she move me from ground to sky
She dancing to kushti music, she is my Gypsy dai, she Leelis Raht Dai (blood mother).
Oh, Devlesko Mama is here. Oh, Devlesko Mama is here.

Parava, Parava...
Ravnos is waiting, Ravnos is smiling
Parava, parava...
Mo Devlesko Ravnos, mo dikimangro (my sacred sky spirit, you are my reflection)
Kam, Shon and Puv travel through the same chorus of the folk song.
It’s awful to say this, but it’s fallen apart
If you can see this, then you'll know in your heart
That the gods are angrier than they’ve ever been
And this is the worst mess that they’ve ever seen
What would they say if they looked down from the sky
They’d say this kid’s stuff is fine, "But we ain’t got the fucking time!"
There’s a song in the cosmos, and it’s there for one and all
They sent us Jesus, but we just ran out of control
This isn’t a fairyland, a theme park, or a zoo
The wild gods have faded, into a human stew
So what would they say if they looked down from the sky
They’d say all this is fine, "But we ain’t got the fucking time!"
Ravnos is waiting, he dare not speak of fate
Kam is still yawning, at our uninitiated state
It isn’t fair that the gorgeous Shon should not know what to do
While Puv is still at her cauldron and her mind is set on you
What would these guys say if they looked down from the sky
They’d say this kid’s stuff is all very fine, "But we ain’t got the fucking time!"

Let the wind blow now, let the wind blow all around
Let the wind blow now, let the wind blow all around
And I will huff and puff and I will blow your house down
I will huff and puff as I consign it to the ground
I will huff and puff and I will blow your house right down
I will huff and puff as I consign it to the ground.
Oh, let the wind blow now, let the wind blow all around
Let the wind blow now, let the wind blow all around
And I will huff and puff and I will blow your house down
I will huff and puff as I consign it to the ground
Hear me huff and puff as I blow your house right down
Hear me huff and puff as I consign it to the ground.
Let the wind blow...
Let the wind blow. Bavol’s wind blow. The wind blow.
Step up to dance and feel the rhythm in me, rhythm in me...
Step up to dance and feel the rhythm in me, rhythm in me...
Let the wind blow now, let the wind blow all around
Let the wind blow now, you cannot keep me out
I will huff and puff and I will blow your house down
I will huff and puff as I blow it to the ground
Hear me huff and puff as I blow your house right down
Hear me huff and puff as I consign it to the ground.
Let the wind blow. Bavol’s wind blow. Hear the wind blow.
Step up to dance and feel the rhythm in me, rhythm in me...
Step up to dance and feel the rhythm in me, rhythm in me...

Crying to the tide when I feel the spray
Asking for your help to flow my way
I want the nature of sea, in my hour of need
Dariava
Running through my hand, the sands of time
Your song is in your caves, in my soul and mind
When white horses cover the shore, when white horses cover the shore
Dariava, she’ll sing to me
Stand in the wind, lie in the sand
The breath in your caves steals across the land
I want the nature of sea, I want all you are to be me
Dariava, she’ll sing to me.
Lady of the deep, spirit of the tide
I want it so bad to have you on my side
When white horses cover the shore, when white horses cover the shore
I will hear you, Lady sing to me
Sing to me, Lady sing to me
Sing to me, Lady sing to me
When white horses cover the shore, white horses cover the shore
Dariava

I am something of an activist with my music & literature. As an indigenous Rom Gypsy my cultural and artistic work explores the highs and lows of life/soul. I champion tribal origins, and the underdog in our modern times. I am tired of what this society tends to throw at us, especially innocent folk. I believe the awesome beauty of nature & the arts remains our only hope in this chaotic world. ... more
