Oh Great Spirit
can you hear me in you're land so peaceful
and so free
please shower down a star or two
so I'll know that you're listening to me
Please send me down a moon beam
surrounded by such things
as love and happiness and good health
and a song for me to sing
Please make my wig-wam snug and warm
keep my camp fires always bright
and may I spot a good luck buffalo
with his robes of wooly white
Please keep my warrior brave and always safe
when he goes off to war
and may he bring home many trophies
to hang outside our door
Oh Great Spirit of the Blackfoot Tribe
let Mother Earth bring forth her gifts
of corn and beans and meat and goods
for when winter's snow lies high in drifts
Please keep my cook pots always full
to keep my family strong
and please let my husband always love me
for it's with him that I belong
Please make me strong and furtile
to bring forth many sons
and let them learn to hunt and fish
count coup and swiftly run
and if you Great Spirit, deem it
please send down me a smaall maiden fair
so that I can teach her our many ways
and let her know I always care
For the next full moon of the harvest
I will marry Strong Eagle of the Blackfoot
and life will start for us right there
Oh Great Spirit of the red man
please listen to this humble maidens prayer
and grant for me this special boon
and give me hope and courage
for the many things I have to bare
Lovely, sunmaiden. Really
Lovely, sunmaiden. Really really lovely. :) Oh how I do so love Great Spirit.
