Daughters of Artemis, we raise our voice in song
With bow and arrows on your back, riding proud and strong
We reach for you through her story, we dream of you and long
For we are you in present time, once and future Amazons
Your myths are carved in granite stone, your power all can see
Refusing of Apollo's light, you set your sisters free
We feel you rising in our breasts, when Themis holds Her scales
And we'll speak our truth with urgent voice that justice will prevail
Each breath we take and step we make, recalls your sacred stride
Across the desert wilderness and down the mountainside
We will refuse the master's tools, and set our own selves free
And we'll find and follow where you lead on the path to liberty
Daughters of Artemis, we claim your holy name
The bright torch of our sisterhood burns as sacred flame
Upon our breast, upon our bloods, we swear a secret bond
For we are you and you are we, once and future Amazons
Priestess, Prophet, Warrior, Queen, and Daughter of the Torch
You loose the arrow in our souls to run the wild course
We reach for you through her story, we dream of you and long
For we are you in present time, once and future Amazons

Daughters of Artemis, we raise our voice in song
With bow and arrows on your back, riding proud and strong
We reach for you through her story, we dream of you and long
For we are you in present time, once and future Amazons
Your myths are carved in granite stone, your power all can see
Refusing of Apollo's light, you set your sisters free
We feel you rising in our breasts, when Themis holds Her scales
And we'll speak our truth with urgent voice that justice will prevail
Each breath we take and step we make, recalls your sacred stride
Across the desert wilderness and down the mountainside
We will refuse the master's tools, and set our own selves free
And we'll find and follow where you lead on the path to liberty
Daughters of Artemis, we claim your holy name
The bright torch of our sisterhood burns as sacred flame
Upon our breast, upon our bloods, we swear a secret bond
For we are you and you are we, once and future Amazons
Priestess, Prophet, Warrior, Queen, and Daughter of the Torch
You loose the arrow in our souls to run the wild course
We reach for you through her story, we dream of you and long

With bow and arrows on your back, riding proud and strong
We reach for you through her story, we dream of you and long
For we are you in present time, once and future Amazons
Your myths are carved in granite stone, your power all can see
Refusing of Apollo's light, you set your sisters free
We feel you rising in our breasts, when Themis holds Her scales
And we'll speak our truth with urgent voice that justice will prevail

You loose the arrow in our souls to run the wild course
We reach for you through her story, we dream of you and long
For we are you in present time, once and future Amazons
