THE WIND AND THE FLOWER
we hope to replace this simulation with genuine voices soon
LYRICS
The flower lives on the prairie
The wind in the sky
I am here, my beloved
The wind and the flower
The crane hides in the sand-hillsWhere does the wolverine hide?I am here, my belovedHeart’s-blood on the feathers
The foot caught in the trap
The crane hides in the sand-hills,
Where does the wolverine hide?
The wind and the flower.
The foot caught – Oh
Take the flower in your handThe wind in your nostrils;Take the flower in your handI’m here, my beloved
Release, release the captive
Release the captive
Heal the wound under the feathers
Heal the wound under the feathers
Flower, Wind, Sky, Prairie
Heart’s-blood on the feathers
The flower lives on the prairie
The wind in the sky
I am here, my beloved
The wind and the flower
Poet: Duncan Campbell Scott (1862-1947)
