D F
Temperate waters
C G
Blue water walkways
D F
paths through the darkness
C G
dappled with light
D Fv C G
Blue and gold, pink and green
D Fv C G
The prettiest symbols you ever seen
Blue water angels
singing with light
Blue water dolphins
schools in flight
Hands in the darkness
waving in air
Smiles through the lightlines
without a care
Lemurian turquoise
Pink blue and green
Communing with angels
the King and Queen
Golden light graces
the shrimps and the turtles
sea horses dancing
a flying fish hurtles
through the air
the feeling ways flying
We are all living
and nothing is dying
Lemurian temples
laid for a feast
the garden of magic
the sacred beast
white unicorn wanders
horn of gold
everything's warm here
nothing is cold
Women are important
the female within
is beloved in all
and honoured as twin
to the man inside
who is no longer afraid
that he is not useful
in the contribution he made.
Love one another
be equal within
no fear of conflict
let us begin
to meet one another
on an equal ground
no more fear of reactions
the peace we've found
is peace within
the lasting kind
and it reflects through our world
for all time
Lemurian people
relate from within
inner man, woman, and child,
is the place to begin
Children are laughing
all understand
the value of loving
in this magical land
You hold my hands
we spin around
golden capes flying
golden crowns
Lemurian loving
all understand
the value of giving
in this magical land
Sun through the window
golden light
feeding on chocolates
the plate so white
Lemurian lovers
holding hands
Lemurian rulers
of this golden land
Lemurian dreaming
dreams me again
Lemuria's reaching
for this world of men
The time has come
to heal the wounds
The time has come
when we will soon
be together
as woman and man
within ourselves
and the inner child can
be loved and play
feel safe and free
in the new Lemuria
Where all is happy.
Repeat verse 1 and 2.

Mermaid's Song by Jelila
Lying on the rocks
Before the magic cave
The mermaids sing
Their magic song
Songs of lovely days
Dreams of starry nights
Dreams of or-ange fly-ing lights
Dreams of you and me
Dreams of all we are
Suddenly I see myself
A bright shining star
Tir-ané - Tir-ané the mermaid's song
Tir-ané - Tir-ané all day long
Butterflies fly
The colour of night
E-merald pur-ple, irridescent white
Fish jump sky-ward in
sparkly bright
Water reflecting the blue of the sky
an island idyll from on high
CHORUS
Tir-ané - Tir-ané the mermaid's song
Tir-ané - Tir-ané all day long

Domineering Father
Words © Jelila. All Rights Reserved. 20.04.06 Singapore.
The teenage girl is singing it on her bed, miming in the mirror singing into her fan her friends join in, when Dad/Mum walk in and:
Am, Em, G, Am
Domineering father
Wouldn’t you rather
Put your gun away
And be my friend.
Wouldn’t you rather be on the mend?
Domineering father
Don’t get in a lather
Wouldn’t you prefer
To be on the mend?
Wouldn’t you rather be my friend, hey hey hey?
Domineering father,
Not sainthood but rather
Kindness at least
Is no palaver?
You’re a beast!
Goes up 3 frets or so:
Bam-bam-bam
Em G Am
Dad Dad Dad – You’ve
Em
been so BAD!
Em G Am
Dad Dad Dad think of all
Em G Am
the fun we could’ve had
If you hadn’t been so
Em Em Em
Nasty Nasty Nasty! …D
Em, G, Am
(They take him to the Judge in chains and he bursts into tears and says ‘sorry I was afraid… afraid… I was wrong”
I was mean to mother because… I was afraid I wasn’t important so I made her unimportant instead’
Child says ‘so that’s why you’ve been trying to prove you were right all this time?
YES YES YES!
Then the 5o’s chicks do the
NO NO NO NO NO NO NO thing from ‘leader of the pack’
(we see Hurt Girl and Domineering Father framed in a heart-shaped Wedding style doorway or frame)
‘they said he was ba-ad –
but I knew he was sa-ad
I’m sorry I fell for
My poor old dad
Ooh-ooh ooh ooh…
CHORUS:
Em G Am
Domineering Fa-ther hey hey hey!
I hate you! I really really hate you!
Am Em G Am
Domineering Fa-ther – hey hey hey!
…Chang Chang Chang
…Act your age
…Turn the page
Domineering father...
Wouldn't you rather...
Domineering Father... etc.
(spoken by Hurt Girl)
Get over it!

Neroli by Jelila
C D
Neroli, the scent of Neroli
C D
Gentle refrain of flowers
C D
Brings me to the hours within
C D C
Where I begin to find peace
Neroli, gentle Neroli
You take me to the place of peace
Still waters, run deep
Where I find release.
(chorus like the chorus in that opera, male voices..)
Neroli, rose
Turquoise jasper pearl
All the scents and flavours
Gentle vibrations unfurl
Am/D D
Weave your spells and sing your songs
C Am… D
All the world sings along
(the healer man comes and sings to Neroli:)
Neroli, gentle Neroli
Have you forgotten how to feel?
Neroli, sweet Neroli,
Do you know, that love is real?
(he’s somewhere else dreaming of her, looking in a crystal ball)
Neroli, sweet Neroli
Do you feel the way I feel?
Neroli, dear Neroli,
Can you doubt that love is real?
Neroli…

Reaching For You
by Jelila
Em C G
Reaching for you with both hands

Trying to understand (the way to hold you)

and give you what you need

at the same time as allowing you to breathe.
(end: 'I love you' whispered)

Where I can lead, without crushing

Looking to be suave without rushing you
Em G D
Desiring to love you without pushing you

In this new place I've found
I need to stand my ground, yet be gentle
Be loving, yet not sentimental
Be strong, yet not regimental
It's a new sound.
Chorus (second time: C + Am, then Em, C, G Repeat)
E6 G E6 G
Feeling the fear that all men feel
E6 G E6 G
Yet knowing it isn't really real
Am D (Am, D, Repeat)
'I wonder if I'm good enough?
I wonder can I do this stuff (the way you want it)?
Am I useful?
Can I please you?
I wonder, can I perform?
Can I keep you warm (and happy)
And avoid your scorn (at all costs)?'
D
Wanting to create lovely things for you
D
Wanting to give you rings (and make homes for you)
D C G
Wanting to give you wings
Em C G
Yet feeling very shy at this new part of myself
Em C G
Unsure of quite how…
G D C G

The Daughters of Herebim by (c) Jelila 2007. All Rights Reserved.
La la la...
The Daughters of Herebim
Walked in the light
The swung and they shook til the daylight
They danced and they swayed
Patterns their feet made
They danced in the dark
And they danced in the shade.
La la la...
The Daughters of Herebim came down to Earth
From far above us came their birth
They descended on high - but walked on the ground
The Daughters of Herebim - their light is profound
La la la...
Dance if you can, be one of us
Move your body
Don't make a fuss
Let your self dance
Feel all you can
Let the dear woman dance with the man
Let the dear woman dance with the man
La la la...
The Daughters of Herebim
Will never be slaves
They laugh in the face of those who would them slave make
They dance and they sing, scattering flowers,
Talking and weaving their dreams in the twilight hours
Talking and weaving their dreams in the twilight hours
La la la...
The Daughters of Herebim
Love who they are
They know where they come from
A beauteous star
They stay with their children
And they love them so
The Daughters of Herebim know where to go
The Daughters of Herebim know where to go
La la la...
They sharpen their steel
They cut their wood
They know what they're doing
And they know it is good
They smile and they sing
They love all they are
The Daughters of Herebim - d'you know who you are?
The Daughters of Herebim - d'you know who you are?
The Daughters of Herebim - is all you are

The Fall
07:20

The Fall by Jelila
In the beginning was The Fall
The call to place a wall
Within every one of us
Rehearsing the blues.
Stopping the ‘blast from the past’
Yet lowering the mast.
So we could no longer step over
To meet each other –
Brother and sister aghast
At the gap between us
Ever widening
Fear did not endear us –
One to the other
And it was the unjust cause
Of many wars.
Of attrition,
Of guns and fighting
No more delighting in our inner being
No more seeing
Of relaxing dreams, pleasing plans and schemes
Between the woman and man within
Just hating and inner bear baiting.
Tiralee tiree
Time to relax and be free
Tiralee tiree
Time to relax and be me
All that I am, woman and man, be free
It’s time to take down the banner
Be a new ‘town planner’ within
Take down the mast at last –
Break through the wall that’s
Held us in thrall for so long
Sing a new song of
‘compare and contrast’
Rather than ‘compete’
Belong together
Be complete within
Let us begin
To sing a new story -
A glory of new love within
Let us win the fight
Against no mercy
Open the purse strings
The coinage of ‘the twin’
Brother and sister in us
To meet to greet - no fuss –
No longer fighting to
be love in each other’s eyes
Delight begin again.
Tiralee tiree – women and men
Begin again
Tiralee tiree – women and men
Begin again,
Begin again, begin again.

Me by Jelila
Sung by: Hurt Girl in Lemurian Dreaming musical
Time to know
Time to understand
The things I’ve suffered at your hand
Time to let go – get going
Time to be free
Time to find peace
Time to get up off my knees
Time to say ‘goodbye’
Time to say ‘hi’
To a new way of being,
A new way of feeling - freeing myself
Time to exhilarate – to breathe
To know it’s not too late
Time to design my own fate
Time to be me,
Time to be free
How could I have known
What all this would have shown me?
If only I’d have known before
Then I would have known me
(Hurt Girl & Domineering Father sing these last 2 verses together)
I’ve never known such a feeling as this before
I’ve never been shown the way out, the door
Now I can walk – I can leave – or I can just stay and be free
It’s up to me!
Now I understand
What it means to be a man
Now I understand
What it means
To be me.

Note: In this song, ‘Hurt Girl’ and ‘Domineering Father’ have reached some resolution about how it feels to be a man – and a father - in a more positive way. Sung by Hurt Girl – but perhaps Domineering Father comes in with some lines.

The Land Of Milk And Honey by Jelila
F C
The land of milk and honey
G D
is a lovely place I’ve found
in the land of love and money
I’m layin on the ground
F Em G
A doo da de de
Doo da de deh
Do da deh de doo da dah
(repeat)
(or, Em base 1 and top 2 strings and up a fret and alternate)
The land of milk and honey
I’m sitting on a mound
here’s the biggest pile of cash
a sitting on the ground
The land of milk and honey
I can see for miles
The land of milk and honey
it comes in many styles
The land of milk and honey
take from what you see
the land of milk and honey
is gushing forth from me
Walkin in the outback
a dollar in my hand
I laugh to see you smiling
In this the promised land
Organise your tinctures
Let your rattle roll
Mixing up your snakebite
In the night we lose control… (do do do do do…)
Dancing round the campfire
The wind sings wild and free
The spirit of the desert
Is flying inside me

Note: This is the finale song of Lemurian Dreaming Musical - where the raggle taggle yet now, resolved, band of Hurt Girl, Domineering Father, Mother, and Higher Self - and everyone else, including members of the audience - go off into the sunset with their new more positive mindset.

The Argument (Dialogue)
01:04

The Argument by Jelila (dialogue from Lemurian Dreaming musical)
(Father:)
You should never have given us this information!
Women are dangerous!
(aside, along with lead male higher self figure, who agrees)
I’m afraid that I’m not as powerful, or as important as she is
And... I’m afraid of my own feminine power
I’d better put her down
(the other Father figures join in)
Down, Down, Down
Down, Down, Down
We’ll never listen to you again!
(Mother)
Crying, Sobbing Sound
(Father)
Oh my God!
I’m afraid
I shouldn’t have listened to her!
I’m afraid – I’m wrong!
I’m not good enough!
I’ve done the wrong thing
There must be something wrong with me!
We’ll never play around with these things again!
It’s not safe to play!
Work is more important!
(father and male crowd chants:)
Work Work Work
Work Work Work!
Words & Music By © Jelila (Angela Torrington) 2006. All Rights Reserved. Singapore 5.6.06
Note: This dialogue is where 'Father' - the inner masculine - first rejects the feminine. It's where the world gets turned over to thinking and doing - rather than feeling.

Ask Dialogue I by Jelila
(Here, Hurt girl is with Neroli – the healer – who has been explaining how Hurt Girl can become more empowered – especially where Domineering Father is concerned).
(Hurt Girl)
Well things are going to be different from now on!
First - I’m going to dream
I’m gonna make up – plans and schemes
Work out - what I want
I’m going to Paris
I’m going to France
I’m going to dance in a purple dress
I confess
My hair’s a mess – I need a new one
I’d better ask!
I’m going to ask
I’m going to say
Please! Put it here for me
Then
I’m going to let go
And fourth, I’m going to know
It’s coming to me –
(Hurt Girl addresses Neroli -)
Did I get it right?
Yes!
Ask for what you want
Don’t sit bemoaning your fate!
Don’t be a victim
Stage a sit-in before it’s too late
And – ASK!

Ask Dialogue II by Jelila
(Hurt Girl)
(Loud knocking)
Dad! Ahem!
I want you to
Stop this and play with me now – please
Dad
It’s enough!
Dad
No - Enough of this stuff!
Dad - Put your guns away
Come and play
Come and laugh
Come and love!
I’m going to ask!
I’m going to Stop
Wearing a mask
That says – nothing!
I’m going to but my oar in
Stop life being so – boring!
(Father is engaged in watching his dough being made – in his dough factory)
(Father)
Erm, Erm – but I don’t know –
Will it all go on without me?
I doubt they can manage without me
I’m indispensible – most important you know
(Hurt Girl)
It’s incomprehensible how you can allow WORK to take over your life
What you need is balance!
(Father)
Balance?
(Hurt Girl)
YES! (throwing out arms as if throwing off an assailant)
Don’t you understand – you’ve got me in a stranglehold!
Let – me – go
I... I...
Note: (Breathe song comes up next).
