WINDS BLOW....CROSS THE LAND
BLOWING....ANCIENT SAND
WHERE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO
DWELT ON THIS MIGHTY LAND
WHERE DID THEY GO....
OH, HOW CAN THEY BE GONE?!
GONE FAR AWAY...NOW
GONE FROM THIS WORLD
TORN FROM THEIR ROOTS AND
CAST OUT FROM THEIR LAND.
A PEOPLE THAT WERE SO IN TUNE
WITH THE "GREAT SPIRIT"
AND WITH ALL AROUND THEM.
THEY LIVED IN HARMONY WITH
ALL THINGS, THE WOLF, THE DEER,
THE BEAR, THE ELK......THE LAND!!!!
THESE GREAT NATIVE AMERICAN CULTURES,
THE SIOUX, CHEROKEE, APACHE, KIOWA,
NAVAJO, HOPI, SEMINOLES, ARAPAHO,
IROQUIOS, SHAWNEE, BLACKFEET, & CROW,
WERE RICH IN LANGUAGES, IN CUSTOMS, AND
MOST ESPECIALLY IN SPIRITUAL TRUTHS
THEY KNEW THAT THE "GREAT SPIRIT" DWELT
IN EVERYTHING AND THEY HAD
RESPECT FOR THIS AWESOME TRUTH.
GONE ARE THE PEOPLE....
SO FAR AWAY
GONE FROM THE MOUNTAINS,
GONE FROM THE HILLS.
GONE FAR AWAY....NOW
GONE FROM THIS LAND,
TORN FROM THEIR ROOTS AND
CAST OUT FROM THIS WORLD.
IGNORANT, STUPID, PEOPLE....DARED
TO CALL THESE INCREDIBLE PEOPLES,
HEATHENS AND SAVAGES......MY GOD!!
VALUABLE LESSONS COULD THESE NATIONS
HAVE TAUGHT TO ALL, IF ONLY HISTORY
HAD BEEN WRITTEN ON A DIFFERENT
PAGE,.......ONE NOT OF DEATH
BUT OF LIFE!!!!
BUT THEY WERE HUNTED DOWN LIKE ANIMALS,
TORTURED, WOMEN RAPED, AND BABIES KILLED.
THE NOBLE MAN WAS LED OFF
IN CHAINS, FAR AWAY FROM HIS
NATIVE LAND, THIS WAS CALLED
RE-SETTLEMENT!!!!
HAULED AWAY BY THE "MIGHTY FORCE"
LET NO MAN DARE SAY
THIS IS NOT A TRUTH
FOR IT IS WRITTEN IN THE BLOOD OF MILLIONS
OF OUR FELLOW BROTHERS AND SISTERS.
SORROW, OH... SAD, SAD, SORROW
LET US HANG OUR HEAD AND
SHED ONE DAMN TEAR....AT LEAST
FOR EVERY SOUL THAT PERISHED,
NEEDLESSLY, SO LONG AGO, SO LONG AGO!!!
YES.....THE GREAT SPIRIT CRIES.
WINDS BLOW....CROSS THE LAND
BLOWING....ANCIENT SAND
WHERE ARE THE PEOPLE WHO
DWELT ON THIS MIGHTY LAND
WHERE DID THEY GO....
OH, HOW CAN THEY BE GONE?!
GONE FAR AWAY...NOW
GONE FROM THIS WORLD,
TORN FROM THEIR ROOTS AND
CAST OUT FROM THE LAND.
WICKED MEN CAME AND TRIED
IN MANY EVIL WAYS TO DRIVE
THE NOBLE PEOPLE OUT.
WHEN THAT DID NOT SUCCEED,
THEY KILLED THIS PROUD MAN.
HIS WIFE, HIS CHILDREN, WERE
SLAUGHTRED LIKE SHEEP
SO THAT "THEY" COULD DWELL
ON THE "SACRED LAND".
THIS ``SHAME" STILL LAYS ON THIS NATION
LET NO ONE SAY, IT IS NOT SO
WHEN.....WILL THEY REPENT OF THIS DEBT
OF BLOOD & DEATH??
IS IT ANY WONDER THIS COUNTRY
NOW SUFFERS IN THE LAST AGONIZING
DEATH THROES OF A NATION
WHO CAME IN AS CONQUERORS!!!!
FOR.......THEY SAW A LAND, SO FAIR,
SO BEAUTIFUL........AND ALL OF IT,
STRETCHED OUT FROM HORIZON
TO HORIZON. THEY COVETED THIS LAND,
THEY LIED TO GET THIS LAND.
THEY MADE TREATIES AND BROKE
EVERY SINGLE ONE!!
THIS IS A HORROR.... A CRIME
BUT "THEY" HAD NO CONSCIENCE
GONE ARE THE PEOPLE..
SO FAR AWAY
GONE FROM THE VALLEYS,
GONE FROM THE PLAINS.
GONE FAR AWAY.. NOW
GONE FROM THE LAND,
TORN FROM THEIR ROOTS AND
CAST OUT FROM THIS WORLD.
SUCH A USELESS WASTE OF LIFE AND
OF KNOWLEDGE, OF ALL THAT
WAS AVAILABLE TO BE GAINED,
FOR THE GOOD OF ALL MANKIND!
BUT..... THE "GREAT SPIRIT"
GATHERED UP HIS FALLEN CHILDREN
AS THEY PERISHED......INTO HIS LOVING ARMS.
INTO HIS GOLDEN LIGHT AND ETERNAL LOVE!!!
THEY TRAVELED UPWARD......ON EAGLES WINGS
THEY ARE WITH HIM....IN BLESSED PEACE FOREVER.
BUT.....THEY DO RETURN TO US AS
SPIRITUAL "TEACHERS" ......SO MANKIND
CAN LEARN...AT LAST.
IF YOU LISTEN, YOU WILL HEAR THEM
OPEN YOUR SPIRITUAL EYES, YOU WILL SEE THEM.
