PREJUDICE IS A HEART AT PEACE

THE AWAKENING
The Spirits come down to dance
The Heavens and the Earth hear their call
Sing your songs ! Awaken to the whispers of your soul
Water of Life ~ Flesh ~ Blood ~ Wind
Fire ~ Rain ~ Purification ~ Creation
Sweet Earth ~ Mother of all Nations
If you listen to her with your heart.
You will hear the dreams of our
~ Ancestors ~
~ ea ni ga da qus di Ida da du hn ~
~ All My Relations In Creation ~
~ Grown men can learn from very little childen ~
For the hearts of children are pure.
Therefore, the Great Spirit may show to
them many things which older people miss

~ Respect all living things ~
Start with your children.
If the very old will remember~~
The very young will listen~~

The Earth does not belong to us
we borrowed it from our children
Hope is the thing with feathers,
That perches in your soul,
And sings the song without words,
And never stops at all
