[00:00.00]90听音乐网 www.90T8.com[00:34.59]There was an esteemed Lakota elder
[00:37.59]A man of visions who laid dying at his home
[00:41.34]Surrounded by his family and friends
[00:44.03]His journey on this earth was fast coming to an end
[00:49.71]One by one they touched his hands stroked his silver hair
[00:55.21]Sang him songs and kissed him on his brow
[01:00.40]His mind wandered between this world and the unseen
[01:05.09]Some thought it was the fever talking
[01:08.53]But his sister knowing his gift of visions
[01:10.96]Summoned the Medicine man to come and pray for his comfort
[01:15.46]And to listen to his words
[01:18.71]When he arrived the elder asked the Holy Man to bring him his pipe
[01:24.22]A family member handed the Medicine Man his pipe
[01:27.40]And he granted the dying man's request
[01:30.59]When he placed it in his arms he closed his eyes
[01:35.02]And softly whispered
[01:39.03]"Twenty years from this day I see blood and countless tears
[01:44.53]Flowing across the ground of Wounded Knee
[01:48.21]It is not clear to me why so many people will die
[01:51.96]Not only our warriors but our women our children
[01:56.71]The young and the old even the four leggeds
[02:00.96]They too will be murdered
[02:04.09]All will be buried as one in an icy cold grave
[02:08.65]There will be no punishment to the murders of our people
[02:13.34]Only the dreams they see at night will be their torture
[02:17.46]And their sentence of shame
[02:20.96]This is my vision
[02:24.40]My time has now come and I have but one final request
[02:30.53]When I draw my last breath
[02:33.21]Take me to Wounded Knee and bury me there
[02:37.90]For it is there that I wish for my spirit to linger
[02:41.21]Long enough to warn the others of this great tragedy that
[02:45.40]Our future holds "
