War

By The Great Indian, Chief Joseph


HEAR me, my warriors; my heart is sick and sad;
Our chiefs are killed,
The old men are all dead,
It is cold and we have no blankets;
The little children are freezing to death.	5
Hear me, my warriors; my heart is sick and sad;
From where the sun now stands I will fight no more forever!
