Sacred Eagle in the sky,
Soaring ever so high,
Oh blessed Eagle,
Divine art thou in flight,
Flying into the holy light.
Indian woman and man,
Dancing upon the land,
Oh blessed Eagle,
Divine art thou in flight,
Flying into the holy light.
Eagle whistles pierce the air,
Songs sung with care,
Oh blessed Eagle,
Divine art thou in flight,
Flying into the holy light.
Pipe and eagle staff in hand,
Nations dancing upon the land,
Oh blessed Eagle,
How sacred are thee,
How divine thou art in flight,
Forever soaring into the sacred light,
And the Sun Dance will live.

Quotes
"I am a red man. If the Great Spirit had desired me to be a white man he would have made me so in the first place. Now we are poor but we are free. No white man controls our footsteps. If we must die we die defending our rights." -
Sitting Bull, Hunkpapa Sioux
