	PUNISHED Oh Great Spirit what was our terrible deed? That caused you to turn your back during the time of our greatest need. We raised our voice to the sky we danced to appease our God, But our pleas of help you did not hear for you allowed us to be trampled into the sod. We took care of your sacred land took only what we would need, We knew it was up to us so the land our people it could feed. We have always asked for your wisdom and guidance for our life, But you gave our land to the white man and pierced our hearts like a knife. We learned from your many creatures so your ways we would understand, We respected all your creations we loved your bountiful land. But now our ways are destroyed our people are in deep despair, Oh Great Spiritwhat was our terrible deed that caused you no longer to care?
