My friend,
They will return again,
All over the Earth,
They are returning again
Ancient teachings of the Earth,
Ancient songs of the Earth,
They are returning again.
My friend, they are returning.
I give them to you,
And through them
You will understand,
You will see.
They are returning again
Upon the Earth.
A song given to Crazy Horse
By The Great Mysterious
Returning Her Gifts
It would seem as though
time has gone full circle.
In the beginning
Mother Earth was the giver of lessons to my people.
She taught my people to live and prosper
on the things she had given them.
She taught my people how to hunt for food
how the hunt would provide not only nourishment
but the materials with which to build our lodges
and clothe our families.
We grew to know these things;
our hearts were filled with great love
and respect for Mother Earth.
They are here... I hear the songs of wisdom feel the winds of change taste the seasons of becoming and run with the wind
As in all things,
time and circumstances have led us away from our obligation to the Mother
To treat her with love and to care for her as she has cared for us.
Each of us must now be the lesson giver;
We must teach the people of all nations to give back to Mother Earth.
They are here... I hear the voices of yesterday through the windows of tomorrow see the evolving of today and fly with the rain
We are here
If a man would treat Mother Earth as his lover
give to her what she gives to him
touch her with love and gentleness
with tenderness and respect
If each woman would
look to Mother as she would to her spirit guide
walk the wisdom of Mother Earth
touch those she meets with the warmth of Mother Earth
love in her gentleness
They are here... I smell the fires of ancient burnings feel the ashes of knowledge sifting into my soul and sit with the coals
If each child would follow in the footsteps of the paths
of our brothers and sisters that have gone before us
they would learn respect for the gifts Mother has given us;
they would learn to grow in the care and nurturing of Mother.
We are here
They are here... in the journey in walking the shadow out I know the truth of it and awake
If all people would live these ways
Mother Earth would again thrive and prosper
In the gifts and blessings of the Great Spirit.
They are here They are we
