Where Have All the Eagles Gone?

A prayer of peace to our ancestors.

Where have the eagles gone?
I look to the sky and find none.
Why are all the waters gone dry?
I look to Mother and she don’t cry
Why are the skies so gray?
I lift my hands to Father and pray.

O’ Grandfather please hear my words
We live not in peace but by demon swords
A fire burns in our hearts but not for love
There’s no honor, only blood from above
We suffocate ourselves, our deeds are weak
My eyes burn from the tears I cannot speak
What shall I do, will you turn your back
Courage, a warrior’s heart…this I lack
Life is vain…Grandfather, please spare none!
