Do you hear them?
The chants that were lost with time?
The chants of the native people of our lands?
They are now long forgotten among most people
Seldom few remember them

As the winds loft by
I can hear these long forgotten chants
It brings tears to my very eyes
To hear such beautiful words
That people now think are voodoo magic
When actually it is praising mother earth for her gifts

As the sun sets
I can almost see the warriors of yesteryear
Dancing around it
Almost as if it were the fire itself
Dancing, Dancing to the glory of mother earth and her children

When the moon rises
I can see the wise chief coming out of his hut
I can see the medicine woman guiding her tribe
I feel their presence in the world today
They are amongst us in everyway
In my heart, they will never be forgotten...
