Indian Wapomeo
Wapomeo,
Wapomeo
Land
of Totem poles,
Home
of Indian souls,
Romance
of another day, hear the Indians pray,
For
their loved ones all day long
When
our chieftains call,
Tonakela
we will fall,
Ever
to thine own command, no one in the land,
Makes
our life just one sweet song.
Daughter
of Canoe Lake Moon
Water
falls lull me to sleep,
Drifting
to the sound of the loon,
Has
my life and treasures to keep.
I
will guard you with my life,
Happy
hunting grounds we'll see
Daughter
of Canoe Lake Moon
Share
this life and love with me.
