On the breath of our prayers

The lone white buffalo came

A broken arrow laid in the hands of man

Let tears of forgiveness bring rain.

 

A magic dance in dust and heat

With figures from another time

Liquid drops of moon bathe your tongue

And form messages in ancient signs

The skinwalker wolf steps in.

 

You're the black ruby

In the palm of my hand

Belladonna and beast

A ghost of the land.

 

With the great hawk to guide us

The strange night creatures call

Blood red beats through our hearts

For the white buffalo's song.

 

A magic dance in dust and smoke

With figures of feather and skin

Caught in the arms of a twilight sky

From our eyes the fire,

From our throats the wind

The skinwalker bird steps in.

 

You're the black ruby

In the palm of my hand

Belladonna and beast

A ghost of the land.

The skinwalker soul steps in.
