Kansas - Cheyenne Anthem video free download
A song written by Kerry Livgren
Artist: Kansas
Album: Leftoverture
Year: 1976
Lyrics:
From the mountains to the sun
Life has only just begun
We wed this land and pledge our souls to meet its end
Life has only just begun
Here my people roam the earth
In the kingdom of our birth
Where the dust of all our horses hides the sun
We are mighty on the earth, on the earth
You have come to move me
Take me from my ancient home
Land of my fathers I can't leave you now
We will share it with you
No man owns this earth we're on
Now the wheels are rolling hear the howling winds of war
It's my destiny to fight and die
Is there no solution
Can we find no other way, Lord let me stay
Under the endless sky and the earth below
Here I was born to live and I will never go, oh no
But we cannot endure like the earth and the mountains
Life is not ours to keep, for a new sun is rising
Soon these days shall pass away
For our freedom we must pay
All our words and deeds are carried on the wind
In the ground our bodies lay, here we lay

Wow. Deep. And so sadly historically true, the vast difference in mindsets about the owenership/right to land itself. This part especially:You have come to move meTake me from my ancient homeLand of my fathers I can't leave you nowWe will share it with youNo man owns this earth we're onNow the wheels are rolling hear the howling winds of warIt's my destiny to fight and dieIs there no solutionCan we find no other way, Lord let me stay9 years ago

"Agora as rodas estão rodando ouça os ventos uivantes da guerraÉ meu destino lutar e morrer,Não existe solução, não podemos achar outro caminho,Deus deixe-me ficarSob o céu infinito e a terra abaixo,Aqui eu nasci para viver e eu nunca irei, oh não"10 years ago

"All our words and deeds are carried on the wind" And then the vocal harmonies at the end fade out on the wind. This is a superb song.10 years ago
