--------x-----------x--------------x-----------x--------- *Where rattlesnakes are sliding across a prairie forgotten, And the western wind twirls up a twirling dustbowl   Whispers upon the wind, ancient voices of our ancestors   Across the land of the wild buffalo, and ancient crowe When time unwinds and more than silence can be heard, Just hold on silently for a moment, and listen closely Sometimes a young child's cry, sometimes a jubilant laugh Many voices of our ancestors, A sweet song of long ago* --------x-----------x--------------x-----------x---------

A Sweet Song of Long Ago
--------x-----------x--------------x-----------x--------- *Where rattlesnakes are sliding across a prairie forgotten, And the western wind twirls up a twirling dustbowl   Whispers upon the wind, ancient voices of our ancestors   Across the land of the wild buffalo, and ancient crowe When time unwinds and more than silence can be heard, Just hold on silently for a moment, and listen closely Sometimes a young child's cry, sometimes a jubilant laugh Many voices of our ancestors, A sweet song of long ago* --------x-----------x--------------x-----------x---------
