Over the rainbow Trail I go


Now I walk in beauty


Beauty is before me,

Beauty is behind me,

Above and below me. (repeat)

Over the rainbow trail I go - On toes to 8 counts of drumbeat

Hither I wander, thither I wander -Drum and step deeply on hither, wither

Over the beautiful trial I go. - 8 counts on toes to drumbeat

(repeat)

Mother Earth's children rise in the morn

Mother Earth's children gather corn.

Dance to the wind, dance to the rain,

Dance to the Earth who gives us grain.

Mother Earth's children put feathers in their hair

Mother Earth's children string beans to wear.

Dance to the wind, dance to the rain,

Dance to the Earth who gives us grain.

Mother Earth's children walk softly as the deer,

To the hearth with the golden ear.

Dance to the wind, dance to the rain,

Dance to the Earth who gives us grain.

A little fire they will make

Bread of golden corn they'll bake.

Dance to the wind, dance to the rain,

Dance to the Earth who gives us grain.

Bread of golden corn they'll eat

Then Mother Earth's children fall fast asleep.

(humming softly) Dance to the wind, dance to the rain,

Dance to the Earth who gives us grain.

(Repeat 'Over the Rainbow Trail I go

Hither I wander, thither I wander

Over the beautiful trail I go.” between all songs

and verses, same movements, no drumming.)

My paddle's keen and bright,

Flashing like silver.

Follow the wild goose flight,

Dip, dip and swing.

Dip, dip and swing it back, flashing like silver.

Follow the wild goose flight, dip, dip and swing.

Land of the silver birch,

Home of the beaver.

Wood where the mighty moose,

Wanders at will.

Green lakes and rocky shore,

I will return once more.

Follow the wild goose flight,

Dip, dip and swing.

Dip, dip and swing it back, flashing like silver,

Follow the wild goose flight, dip, dip and swing.

(Repeat verse.)

May we all fly like eagles

Flying so-o high

Circling the Universe

On wings of pure light

o witchi ti ti

Witchi ti o oh

o witchi ti ti

Witchi ti i oh

Witchi ti i oh

Witchi ti i o oh hoh

(Repeat verse.)

Mother Earth to you we're singing,

Listen to our song.

Thanks for golden harvest bringing,

Listen as we sing to you,

Sing to you, sing to you,

Songs of rain and sunshine.

On the trail where we are going

Ever will we sing.

When the winter comes with snowing

Still our hearts will sing to you,

Sing to you, sing to you,

Songs of rain and sunshine.

(Repeat verse.)

The moon on the one hand,

The sun on the other,

The moon is my sister,

The sun is my brother.

The moon on my left,

The sun on my right,

My brother “Good morning”,

My sister “Good night”.
