You loved and lived eons gone by
You walked and spoke to the rivers now dead
You shared all you saw with the earth and sky
You were the prey while you hunted for your daily bread
Your women and children slept on the earth
Your deer and buffalo ran free their courses
Your painted language of seven tribes gave birth
Your blue medicine came from the heart of your source
Cherokee . . . your Mother misses you
For Ever Free . . . no other will be like you
Cherokee . . . this song won’t forget you
Now We See . . . what they did to you
Never to walk through the wood on the trail
Tears dry falling on broken feet and blood stained soil
Stripped of your wings and broken feathers
Exterminated and driven naked to your Never land
Cherokee Great Spirits rescue you
Forever free above the trail of blue
Cherokee long tears will not touch you
Now we see what they stole from you . . . Cherokee
