Glooscap and the Seven Truths

Can you hear the Mi’kmaw child

play beneath these wooded hills?

As pale face brothers bring on shore

their beads, their greed, their stills

Can you see the Eagle soar

to Creator in the sky?

As settler boats bring us disease

force innocence to die

Great Spirit

you sent us Glooscap

from lightning bolts by hand

Great Spirit

you gave us Glooscap

spread respect across the land

See the Elder, feather smoke

to heart, to mouth, to eyes

Respect, love, truth, humility

make us honest, brave and wise

Great Spirit

you sent us Glooscap

from lightning bolts by hand

Great Spirit

you gave us Glooscap

spread respect across the land

Bear is the brave one

Beaver he is wise

Buffalo respects

Sasquatch's honest eyes

Turtle is truthful

Wolf eats humble pie

Eagle bears love

until the day he dies

Can you hear the Mi’kmaw child

play beneath these wooded hills?

As pale face brothers bring on shore

their beads, their greed their stills

Great Spirit

you sent us Glooscap

from lightning bolts by hand

Great Spirit

spread respect across the land

Bear is the brave one

Beaver he is wise

Buffalo respects

Sasquatch's honest eyes

Turtle is truthful

Wolf eats humble pie

Eagle bears love

until the day he dies

Great Spirit

you sent us Glooscap

from lightning bolts by hand

Great Spirit

you gave us Glooscap

spread respect across the land
