A song of greatness

When I hear the old men
Telling of heroes,
Telling of great deeds
Of ancient days,
Whwn I hear them telling,
Then I think within me
I too am one of these.

Whwn I hear the people
Praising great ones,
Then I know that I too
Shall be esteemed,
I too when my time comes
Shall do mightily

A Chippewa Indian song
transcribed by Mary Austin
