~ Come Together ~
All blood comes from the heart
And traces the sacred circle
within
All water flows to the sea
Where it's journeys first
begin
Aniyvwiya have roamed over the
land
And return to the Tsalagi
heart
Tsalagiyi Ayeli is gathering
In the place where traditions
all start
Separated by no fault of our
own
Our blood is still the same
red
Our hands, my brothers, are
opened
Our welcome is truthfully said
Work together for the good of
us all
Let deeds, not words, meet the
test
Close the Circle but don't
close the heart
There is room for all chicks
in the nest
Life is too short to be bitter
or sad
Laugh in the night and smile
with the sun
Sing "Wado Grandfather" for
every gift
Come together Tsalagi, a new
trail has begun.
