oh great sachem
here is my wampum
and my spear
my arrows
and my heart
they are yours
with the whiteman's plague
and the thunder of his guns
cast me upon
them fierce and angry
soft and peaceful
righteous...
so i might descend
below the world
and bring back the great bear
and the wolf
if it takes a thousand years
do not despair
though my blood mixes
my tears dry
and my bones turn to dust
so long as I dream
our nation lives.
