Amor translated to English means “Love”. This song is one of the last songs that can be sung in the ceremony. I think this song encapsulates the feeling of love from the entire ceremony.
Maybe in the ceremony itself, maybe the last thing you would think of is love, especially if you had a difficult ceremony, or maybe it wasn’t the ceremony maybe you just had a difficult day. This song can help us and give us that insight, which in itself is healing. I think this song is necessary, it makes its own statement, in the ceremony, or even just in the song in itself, “Love!”.
This Song is about a man “Condumbe” travelling to other lands. It talks about the land of the people of Africa, and also the land of different peoples, visiting and noticing different customs and traditions. Even with this Ayahuasca medicine we are travelling, going into another realm of awareness, and another sphere within ourselves. It is during this time while on the medicine when one can “travel” with their awareness. This is basically what this medicine is all about, in a way travelling within, and it is about opening oneself and learning, healing and growing from within ourselves, and how we communicate with ourselves, our family members, our friends, and eventually everyone. This song is like a reminder of this.
Ayahuasca Songs from Ceremonies in The Amazon Jungle in Peru…
I began singing these Ayahuasca songs in 1991, after being in Ayahuasca Ceremonies in the Amazon Jungle in Peru. As I began to sing the songs, being of Indigenous ancestry of the Caribbean, I immediately felt a feeling of coming and being home. This made so much sense to me when I learned of the traditional use of Ayahuasca or similar medicines that were used by my people.
Prior to learning these songs in the Amazon I worked as an Elementary School teacher on the Fort Peck reservation in Montana and on the Navajo Reservation in Arizona. While working with these communities I was introduced to their way of prayer, honouring the land and their ancestors. An opportunity came to me when I was asked to travel down to the Peruvian Amazon to translate for foreigners sitting in Ayahuasca ceremonies. After taking part in these ceremonies I developed a strong connection with Ayahuasca and with the Maestro and began to not only help with translations but to support the participants in ceremonies as well. During the time I spent with the Maestro he passed on and gifted me songs that have never left me.
I hope that by sharing these ayahuasca songs that they may reach out to you, to show and to help give an understanding of what is involved when working with “La Ayahuasca”. I sing these songs to you with great respect, and from my heart, so that they may heal and reveal to you the medicine that they carry within.
These ayahuasca songs tell a story within themselves…
