Nightwish - Creek Mary's Blood lyrics

rate me

Soon I will be here no more

You'll hear my tale

Through my blood

Through my people

And the eagle's cry

The bear within will never lay to rest

Wandering on Horizon Road

Following the trail of tears

White man came

Saw the blessed land

We cared, you took

You fought, we lost

Not the war but an unfair fight

Sceneries painted beautiful in blood

Wandering on Horizon Road

Following the trail of tears

Once we were here

Where we have lived since the world began

Since time itself gave us this land

Our souls will join again the wild

Our home in peace 'n war 'n death

Wandering on Horizon Road

Following the trail of tears

Once we were here

Where we have lived since the world began

Since time itself gave us this land

Wandering on Horizon Road

Following the trail of tears

Once we were here

Where we have lived since the world began

Since time itself gave us this land

"Hanhepi iyuho mi ihanbla ohinni yelo

O sunkmanitutankapi hena,

sunkawakanpi watogha hena,

oblaye t'ankapi oihankesni hena

T'at'epi kin asni kiyasni he

akatanhanpi iwankal

Oblaye t'anka kin

osicesni mitakuyepi òn

Makoce kin wakan

WakanTanka kin òn

Miwicala ohinni - Hanhepi iyuha

kici - Anpetu iyuha kici yelo

Mi yececa hehaka kin yelo, na

ni yececa sunkmanitutankapi

kin ka mikaga wowasaka isom

Uncipi tuweni nitaku keyas ta k'u

Unwakupi e'cela e wiconi

wanji unmakainapi ta yelo

Anpetu waste e wan olowan

le talowan winyan ta yelo

Unwanagi pi lel e nita it'okab o'ta ye

Untapi it'okab o'ta

Na e kte ena òn hanska ohakap

ni itansni a'u nita ihanke yelo"

Translation:

"I still dream every night

Of them wolves, them mustangs, those endless prairies

The restless winds over mountaintops

The unspoilt frontier of my kith n`kin

The hallowed land of the Great Spirit

I still believe

In every night

In every day

I am like the caribou

And you like the wolves that make me stronger

We never owed you anything

Our only debt is one life for our Mother

It was a good day to chant this song

For Her

Our spirit was here long before you

Long before us

And long will it be after your pride brings you to your end"
