Its still dark and the fire is burning low, more wood to the fire now its time to go, Rise and shine , its a brand new day, Smudge and go to water, that is our ancient ways. Submerge 3 to 7 times , facing East to greet the day, Honor Creators life giving Sun! Come on now, got so much to do, We fight fire with Fire, Flames of White And Red, Sacred Fire calling me, sacred fire calling me!!!!
I received the call , at the age of seven , Aunt Mary Said seek the white mans heaven, She Said Yellow Bear Was starving, gave up his yard, All The history for a pound of lard.
Poor starving injin is what she said , He tried to save that holy place,
Nothing but a look of loss , Burning deep in his Face,
Yellow Bear of the Cherokee, Yellow Bear!
