Subject: Lyr Add: THE EARTH IS OUR MOTHER (Hopi)
One of my favourites I first heard on a Libana CD. It is a Hopi chant. After a "rockin'" intro, this kid does a decent job of it: click on youtube.

The Earth is our Mother We must take care of her The Earth is our Mother We must take care of her
Hey yanna ho yanna hey yon yon Hey yanna ho yanna hey yon yon
Her sacred ground we walk upon With every step we take Her sacred ground we walk upon With every step we take
Hey yanna ho yanna hey yon yon Hey yanna ho yanna hey yon yon
The Earth is our Mother She will take care of us The Earth is out Mother She will take care of us
Hey yanna ho yanna hey yon yon Hey yanna ho yanna hey yon yon
