western native

F I R E  D A N c e

Me Papa was happy the night
when big brother Tatanka Chaser
came back from The Canyon

Big brother told us
he saw the big gray wolf
howling at the peak of Eagle Crest

During the full moon bright
Papa the Star Gazer
set up the big fire

We dance all night long
Flame on log
smoke in the air

Tears in my ears
Joy in my heart
Tatanka Chaser is a big man
now and ever.
