Lyrics:

Oh Brothers, dear sweet sisters
Let´s stand in our power
We are warriors of this Earth
Climbing mountains, reaching high

Oh brave brothers, sweetest sisters
Let´s gather our tribe
We are crossing rivers wide
Going to the other side

Let us sing our songs of peace
Hear the waters flowing sweet
Circling the Earth divine
waterfalls, lakes and seas

Rivers long and oceans deep
Flowing wild and flowing free
Rain that falls and rising steam
Snow and ice, she is so free

Breathe the air so clean
Fill your lungs with energy
Fire burning clear and strong
Giving life to everyone

Taita Inti, Padre Sol
Grandfather Tatavari
Rays that shine with pure beauty
Traveling through galaxies

Wakan Tanka Tunkashila
Oh Great Spirit, mystery
Pacha Mama, Ancient Mother
Guide us in this lifelong wander

We are children of this Earth
Generations giving birth
I offer my life to you
Guide me with your loving truth

Viva sol e viva lua
Viva todas as estrelas
Viva vento viva mar
Viva toda a floresta

Viva sol e viva lua
Viva todas as estrelas
Viva vento viva mar
Viva toda a floresta


In the Huni Kuin tradition that we have been taught by, the prayer part that is in their native language Hancha Kuin, is forwarded by word of mouth. Therefore we as well have followed this tradition and have not written down this part.

Flowers of the Forest is a musical journey created and composed by Sigmund Vatvedt (Ziggy Bané) and Rutti Atitasha. The group combines various musical expressions, culture and languages. It is a meeting between the ancient and modern, inspired by folklore and traditions from the west and the east, the north and the south. The songs express the beauty of nature and the creative Life Force. The lyrics speak of the hearts longing to be free. In the core of the music lays a deep spiritual calling which comes to life through the melodies, harmonies and sounds. Created is an expression of the souls yearning to awaken and to live life fully.
