"Stand Sure" - Celtic Harp by Selkie Anderson - Official Music Video

Official music video to my Celtic harp song "Stand Sure" - filmed with magical creatures in the woodlands. It's been a while in the making and I'm really happy to share it with you at last. Special guest between the leaves: Mike Modulacja. 🙏💜🍃 🎶

The song was inspired by the crest of the Scottish Anderson Clan. When researching my last name, I came across their beautiful symbol of an old oak tree and the words "Stand Sure". There is much to learn from nature. From a small acorn grows a strong tree, standing firmly in the ground and yet moving with the wind and adapting to the seasons. 🌱🌳

The video was inspired by our fairyland in the forests, as well as myths and legends surrounding woodland spirits like Satyrs, Nymphs and other forest fae. Sometimes, when I'm out in nature playing my harp, it's not difficult to imagine that there is more than plants, insects and forest animals listening. There's so much more than we know and life is quite wondrous at times, even if only in our imagination.

Lyrics

Stand Sure

Strong just like the oaken tree
I stand sure, I stand sure
Where the sunset meets the sea
I stand sure, I stand sure

The elder days long gone
And we still echo their song
The elders taught us one thing
That is: to stand sure, to stand sure

Deeply rooted in the ground
I stand sure, I stand sure
Life unfolding all around
I stand sure, I stand sure

The elder days long gone
And we still echo their song
The elders taught us one thing
That is: to stand sure, to stand sure

Engraved in ancient stone
Stand sure, stand sure
In mind, in heart, in bone
Stand sure, stand sure

Moving gently with the wind
We stand sure, we stand sure
Grown beyond all that we’ve been
We stand sure, we stand sure

The elder days long gone
And we still echo their song
The elders taught us one thing
That is: to stand sure, to stand sure
