Cherokee Lyrics

Walela Cherokee

Sweet eyes of my father
In my own eyes I can see
The vision of the ancient Cherokee
Sweet sacred inspiration
He passes on to me
Heartbeat of the gentle Cherokee

And I heard him say
That's just the way love is
When love is bliss

And we will walk the mighty circle
Double cross the hands of time
Laugh and we'll cry as egos die
Until we get to the other side
Put on our wings and fly

The soul of sweet foregiveness
Walks his path with dignity
With the wisdom of the ancient living Cherokee
I come from his deep water
As much like him as I can be
And I carry to my own children
The promise of the Cherokee

And I heard him pray
That everywhere God is
Let freedom live

And we will walk the mighty circle
Double cross the hands of time
As nations die and hearts unite
When we'll get to the other side
Put on our wings and fly

Song of Monolah Sing of Mother Earth
Let everyman live free
Let every voice be heard
Let every child be born
Knowing the way

And we will walk the sacred circle
Join our hands across all time
Living in peace when we believe
We're gonna get to the other side
Join our voices across the sky
When we get to the other side
We're gonna leave this world behind
Til we get to the other side
We're gonna wear our Cherokee pride
