Cherokee Winds (Song Lyrics)

Cherokee spirts riding in the clouds Cherokee winds crying out loud ( Chorus ) The Cherokee spirits whispering from far away, Calling, Calling, Calling through the winds, Oh the longing message it sends. Whispering ancestors bacon all family when life ends. Cherokee spirts free, longin again to roam Among the lands they once called home ( Chorus ) Winds sing banchee songs bellow in the night, Of spirits calling of their long ago fright, All souls now weakening with out fear, all who hear lonely hearts those left behind, Rains of loved ones sheading tears. Cherokee spirits roaming through the clouds Looking for lost family among the crowds ( Chorus ) So if you hear at the end of your days, becoming banchee winds calling your name Though you never knew your ancestors, yet unknowlingly always obeying Cherokee way Cherokee spirits riding on the clouds Calling through the winds riding over the crowds. (Chorus ) Then you may be....indian Cherokee family Once so free that roamed this land endlessly Cherokee spirits roaming still ever so free Calling one last time all Cherokee family By Linda Terrell

Reminds me of the song "Cherokee People" by Paul Revere and the Raiders back in the 1960's. That was taken form a poem like your song is. Fine work!

Thanks Carol, Pam. My greatgrandmother was Cherokee but of Christian faith Though some were not. Some years before that some did not know what to believe but on what was around them. That is what I was hoping to present in the poem. Thanks
