Tribal Songs from the South-west
HEY—ye! | |
| Hey! | |
| Hey—now go, gather, gather living arrows, gather! | |
| Stand ye in the white dawn— | |
| Crouch, spring, run! | 5 |
| Hey now, plume feather, feather—eagle flying feather— | |
| Strike ye in the red dawn! | |
| Crouch, spring, run! | |
| Hey, now pray power of storm! | |
| Hey, now pray lightning’s bolt! | 10 |
| Hey, now pray power of flint! | |
| Hey, now pray weather, weather—war-like stormy weather! | |
| Slay ye in the yellow dawn— | |
| Crouch, spring, run! | |
| Hey, now go, gather, gather, bleeding bonnets gather—huh! | 15 | | | |
