Testo First Peoples - Raffi
Testo della canzone First Peoples (Raffi), tratta dall'album Bananaphone
For thousands of years the world has known countless peoples
Living in many different ways
With their own language, art and songs
Respecting the bounty of nature
Huron, Cree, Ojibwe
Yanomami, Kayapo
Penan, Nishka, Lakota
First peoples of this world
First of all our voices heard
Mother, father, ancient kin
Spirit names of countless tribes
Carve and paint, chant and drum
Gift and glory of an olden time
Weave and spin, tales of a new day come
Hand in hand, walking free
Children of the land and sea
Dreams and visions dancing in the wind
Iroquois, Carib, Navajo
Inuit, Sami
Miskito, Dene, Qallavit
Haida
And today first peoples enrich the earth family
Share the wisdom of ages for future generations
Helping to protect our sources of beauty, health and wonder
Father Sky, Mother Earth
All of our relations birth
Eagle, bear, turtle, whale
Moving in creation's tale
First peoples of this world
The test of time endured
Brothers, sisters in the sun
Circle life in a spiral run
Carve and paint, chant and drum
Gift and glory of an olden time
Weave and spin, tales of a new day come
Hand in hand, walking free
Children of the land and sea
Dreams and visions dancing in the wind
Gitxan, Ainu, Fulani
Arawak, Arapaho
Maya, Maori, Wishaw
Oromo
Shoshone, Hopi, Innu
Envera, Quechua
Tubekang, Salish
Dandami, Munda
Gurindji, Kalinga
Carve and paint, chant and drum
Gift and glory of an olden time
Weave and spin, tales of a new day come
Hand in hand, walking free
Children of the land and sea
Dreams and visions dancing in the wind
