INDIAN WANDER SONG
The brave has left his sung tepee,
Oh, the smell, the smell o' the wind!
Has left his wife and his children three,
Oh, the song, the song o' the pine!
He has left the camp and the warm camp-fir
Whispers low in his heart the luring desire.
Oh, the call o' the woods and the wind!
The brave called to his faithful hound,
Oh, the smell, the smell o' the wind!
But the dog heeds not the well-loved sound,
Oh, the song, the song o' the pine!
The brave has called to his brothers four,
But they sleep too warm by the wigwam doi
Oh, the call o' the woods and the wind!
The brave calls thrice and then is gone,
Oh, the smell, the smell o' the wind!
Far, far must he go till his Journey's done.
Oh, the song, the song o' the pine!
Deep into the forest he follows his way
Through the dying night and the dawning da
Oh, the call o' the woods and the•wind!
When his Mother calls the brave must go,
Oh, the smell, the smell o' the wind!
Though her voice be soft, and the call be low,
Oh, the song, the song o' the pine!
Though the night be chill and the way be dre
The brave must go when her voice comes clea
Oh, the call o' the woods and the wind!
