The Gypsy Priestess | Leesa Wilson Shanti and Buck open a door into the mystic realm of soul with their music which invites one to linger, to love, to dance, to dream countless hours away...

Exquisite vocals; intoxicating melodies - Haunting enchantment!

I am reminded of a place found only in spirit, where home is an unspoken longing.

about

Lyrics by Shanti Curran

lyrics

Darkness and Light
Bring on the night
Cast from the earth
Shatter the sky

Burned from the fire
Drowned by the sea
Burned from the fire
Drawn by the waves

Daughters of man
gather your seeds
take to the land
cast out your hands

Daughters of Man
be not afraid
Daughters of Man
Take what you've made

Darkness and Light
Banish the night
Here take my hand
Follow me there

Born by the dawn
Daughters of Man
Born by the dawn
Burned by the fire

Daughters of Man
Banish the night
Daughters of Man
Cast out your hands
Cast out your hands
Cast out your hands
Cast out your hands
