Heart of Akamon
As we've learned from the past, as has been foretold A great serpent from the sea arrived on these shores Above the mast of a great ship, like a forked serpent's tongue The pennant swiftly flapped on the east horizon An omen of disease and great despair, as it was foretold They propherised a sign of sorrow and ruined lives from a distant land With eyes so wide - They saw them arrive with their eyes so wide Fearful of the warning War is waged - Their sole intent, to pierce the heart of Akamon From east to west, thousands fall to endless war and plagues Pa ka či tsi! Wileniki wisiki lenawewi, mata ho'kwoali Pa ka či tsi! Wiišimaneto, howeši maneto, ni' mamaatome'pe The wisdom of these ancient men, centuries ago To have known of this prophecy, this serpentine curse Otomien wept as the ships came into view Knowing that serpent tradition was true To see through the fog of wars To smell the scourge of plagues To perish in winter frost To tread through this life with black legs

A blinding flash that shatters the stillness of dawn As night subsides a day of slaughter and death rages on When flint meets steel, when blade meets flesh 'Til the end of time, this place shall be cursed Farther away from the place of our birth Lost on the trail of the setting sun No rest in steep wooded valleys below No peace in lands stained with blood Breathe in the smoke: as your bones smolder War is our burden and we must survive With loss so great, our tears are all flowing As battle fog clears and we bury our dead The glow of flames that greets the arrival of night Returning home to tell the stories of victory and loss As mothers and wives wail in grief And enemy sons are roasted alive Will the morning bring no solace Wash away the strife down from our eyes Poisoned by an empty promise Bitter tongues of secrecy and lies Let us not forget our bloodshed May we rise and find the strength inside May the wounds of our fathers Be the flame that guides us in the night Ni 'teleni wikiila niila Wiki katwelo kweki lawepa

With sadness deep they wept beside the stream As the death chant intoned they laid him in the earth Along that sweet, clear creek ('okiima rise again!) With sadness almost too great as they left his grave Until his great return ('okiima rise again!) All hope is gone, it's too late to save a soul so brave High above, a panther in the sky May a tree of peace grow from where he laid to die From where he laid to die, rise again

In terror of night, the damp shades extolling Bleak absence of light, mired in blackest waters Starving and sick, tormented by shadows In the black swamp they fear death by their captor's hands Traversing the shades of death Blackened faces full of grief Lost, exiled No light shines through the forest canopy A thick fog veils their tortured cries Drowning in the black of night As panthers descend upon their prey A tragic fate befell the souls who were Traversing the shades of death

Škimota Ascending into her celestial abode Here moonlit reflection appears near her home in the sky world Beyond the waters, approaching the stars Her weaving unravels again and the sun passes onward

Soft steps on moist earth A setting sun and rekindled firelight Clean as if reborn and in the grass below an entire world reveals itself The distant hills at once erupt in the song of the Dog Nation - The ancient howling chant that taught man how to sing Doubts are shed, pacts are made, oaths are sworn, time is forgotten All the nations of Mother Earth (Tula, Turtle Island) honor each other All the rivers of Akamon strive to heal themselves Bonds of kinship and the insect nations drowns the chatter of modern man in the chill of dusk The inner silence that fosters true brotherhood A journey within the great mystery that weaves itself through all things An ancient song inside A journey far and wide A womb that brings rebirth On this unripe side of earth A hallowed path to tread To where my spirit's led
