Ancient Echoes
Sun on the horizon is setting
Deep in the trees howl the wolves
Far off the ravens are calling
Night fall has come to the earth
Fire wood crackles with pleasure
Shadows dance round on the trees
While the Flames lick the night like a whisper
Smoke journeys off on the breeze.
We sit by the light of the fire
Images run in our heads
Telling the ancestral stories
Singing the songs of our kin
Long in the past sat brave warriors
Much as we do here today
They were telling the same ancient stories
Singing of each other’s praise
Memories of past generations
Visions lie deep in our soul
Ancient Traditions we honor
Our Forefathers linage we hold
Echoes Through time a reflection
Ancestral blood in our veins
And it Burns like an undying ember
Yearns to be fanned into flames.
