Cheyenne Anthem - Kansas

From the mountains to the sun

Life has only just begun

We wed this land and pledged our souls to meet its end

Life has only just begun

Here my people roam the earth

In the kingdom of our birth

Where the dust of all our horses hides the sun

We are mighty on the earth

On the earth

You have come to move me, take me from my ancient home

Land of my fathers, I can’t leave you now

We will share it with you, no man owns this earth we’re on

Now the wheels are rolling;

hear the howling winds of war

It’s my destiny to fight and die

But is there no solution?

Can we find no other way?

Lord, let me stay!

Under the endless sky and the earth below

Here I was born to live, and I will never go

Oh, no…

But we cannot endure like the earth and the mountains

Life is not ours to keep, for a new sun is rising

Soon these days shall pass away

For our freedom we must pay

All our words and deeds are carried on the wind

In the ground our bodies lay

Here we’ll stay…
