Hello, everyone!

It's been about three years since I published Chant of Mirth, and I know you guys have been asking for this for quite a while, so here it is!

Chi-Chi and I are very proud to present "Chant of Benevolence". She did an amazing job with her vocals, and she put a ton of effort into her part! She really takes the stage in this one!

Also, a big shout-out to RainSnowHail for mixing this song! It's pretty much tradition now!

And, as always, a big thanks to DragonwolfRooke for doing the amazing artwork up there!

Lyrics:

(chorus)
September Blue, Thy sorrows be forgotten
October Auburn, Let this season pass
November Gray, Restore with thy rain
December White, Thy beauty ever last

(v1)
Light of virtue shown
Sign of one's true form
To grow only small
Giving guidance for all
Seen while hardly known

(repeat chorus)
September Blue, Thy sorrows be forgotten
October Auburn, Let this season pass
November Gray, Restore with thy rain
December White, Thy beauty ever last

(v2)
Bright inviting morn
Brilliant rays reborn
So follow along
As the shadows have gone
Walk where time has torn

(repeat chorus)
September Blue, Thy sorrows be forgotten
October Auburn, Let this season pass
November Gray, Restore with thy rain
December White, Thy beauty ever last

Ahhhh, ahhhh, ahhhh...

December White, Thy beauty ever last

[JAYDae]

I might be just over thinking it, yet this is what I've gotten from each of the chants.

Chant of Immortality: The ability to remember and cherish memories, and a warning of wasting time whilst not making new memories.
Chant of Mirth: The ability to make someone happy with a simple act of joy, and a warning to go away from hatred because it will only cause more sadness.
Chant of Benevolence: The ability to show kindness to others even if that act is small, and a warning of losing the ability to show kindness with time.

"Thy sorrows be forgotten"

Oh how I wish. I love this line. It feels like Fluttershy is actually there, battling away all my fears and pain. Your entire chant series brought something to me that I didn't know I was missing. Immortality brought me Clarity, Benevolence brought me Safety, Selflessness brought me Happiness, Mirth brought me Comfort, Truth brought me Release, and Allegiance brought me Courage. I can't tell you how much these chants have helped me this week. Your kindness, loyalty, generosity, happiness, and honesty will live on forever as magic in the hearts of those you have touched. You've touched my heart, 4everfreebrony, and I didn't know I needed it. Thank you. You have no idea how much your music has done for me.

[kajetanjankowski]

This song is one of the best song in Chant series cause not only it have an unique tradition melody but also we can see more Fluttershy personality. She is the one can get through pain with unbreakable mind

[alatakkk]

From deep inside, my soul resonates in time: The sweetest of melodies that now caress a smile unto my lips, that cushion my ears with warm truth and compassion. The wait is over, the time is nigh; sing now the praises of the peaceful!

[ChichiAi]

Goodness gracious This is probably one of my new favorites from the series! its a total pleasure to sing with you dude, thank you so much for having me on the song :D

[ponivi]

I found these three pretty recently, and honestly, they don’t just age well, they don’t age at all in the first place, and they are the greatest songs I’ll ever have the pleasure of hearing

[Aloemancer]

I've waited literally years for this

[nathangamble]

Fluttershy's stare is simultaneously horrifying and endearing. It's as if it's trying to tear apart my soul at the same time as it's trying to empower and liberate it.
This is the essence of benevolence: letting me be whatever I can be, while also revealing to me what it is, and what I am. I'm inspired to be good, while it reveals the goodness in me. Simultaneously it reveals all the flaws, and I hate them, but I *must* resolve them: I follow along as the shadows have gone and walk where time has torn, with no clue of where I'm going, but knowing, deep down, at some fundamental level, that I am going in the right direction.

[kellingc]

This one of my favorites. I get a sense of Fluttershy's true power, but it doesn't outshine her kindness. It makes ne want to support her, and help her. Wow, music can be powerful in its own right.

[Triss]

My favorite chant used to be The Chant of Immortality, but now it's definitely this one.

[ピカリFritzyBeat]

This might very well be my favorite chant yet <3 It's so mystical and euphoric, like walking through an ancient forest, not searching for anything or going anywhere, but just enjoying a sense of wonder, exploration, and smallness in comparison to the world.

This song truly is pure bliss for me, thank you ^^

[hitnrun]

This song writing is beyond professional level, its almost personal listening to your music, like you are touching our hearts <3.

[themanthelegendjaycefingta]

As a witch from celtic roots, i had to say this gave me chills because it literally sounded like EXACTLY something we'd dance to in our celebrations

[NoobFish]

I can see it now a chant for each element. It'll be like AcoustiMandoBrony and the song that came after Loyalty, except hopefully we will actual get a song for each one. I also have some ideas for titles, and feel free to steal.

Chant of Dedication (Loyalty)
Chant of Truth (Honesty)
Chant of Sacrifice (Generosity)

The second I checked my notifications that this was out... *CLICK*

[NeverLaststanding]

I love this track so much, when I first heard it I was astonished. You & Chi-Chi really crafted an amazing story with this. The intro is well done & ahhhh I can't get over it. The instrumentation is fantastic, as also displaying your diversity. Your vocals as always are a great addition to the track <3 The woodwinds that play & the plucks in here are lovely. The dynamics are also wonderful. Really great way of crafting a song around this theme, you've nailed it regarding the lyrics, vocals & the instrumentation all together. Lovely track <3

Only 34 thousand views?! *HARRUMPH!* I say this music deserves at least 100 thousand!

[birdieman]

I see myself regulary comming back to your Chants. They remind me of a... Simpler Time, when the Fandom was new and i was hooked on the Series. Things seem just so.... Weird today. I will never not have these in my favorite playlist. Thank You.

[kaybee]

It's 1:22pm and I can't sleep. I saw this thumbnail and whispered an audible "yes" into the darkness.

[shilohbronson]

We all waited years for this.... you'd think that after all this time we'd be disappointed.
I'm not O.O
