I call to the West, where the Father ascends//
to all Mother Earth where life begins//
I fly through the cedars, pines, willows, and birch//
as animals below me wander and search//

I call to the South, to the land down below//
Turtle stands silent, as man strings his bow//
to hunt food and fur for his kin before snow//
A life will end so others will grow//

I call to the North, that we all once knew//
I follow their path til it disappears from view//
Once vast in number, there stand but a few//
I hear only ghost thunder of millions of hooves//

I call to the East, to the ends of the lands//
to the Seneca, Mohawk,Cyauga ... all bands//
Unite for the strength. Teach the young and demand//
that you are Native Americans.Learn your tongue and stand//
