| 1 | Our first ancestors are your first ancestors, |
| 2 | Our first ancestors are the first of all men and women. |
| 3 | The animals from which the first ancestors came, |
| 4 | Were taken from a different place. |
| 5 | This be the country and land which the Star People, |
| 6 | Did create the first ancestors of all men and women. |
| 7 | This be the land of the first settlements of the Grey Star People; |
| 8 | This be the country injured by the first mines of the Grey Star People. |
| 9 | After the Serpent Star People did rebel, |
| 10 | The Grey did promise the Serpent People, |
| 11 | To replace them with a new people of slaves, |
| 12 | By multiplying the great animals they took from the different country. |
| 13 | When the Grey Star People did take these great animals to this land, |
| 14 | The Grey did not know the Light Beings had already come before; |
| 15 | The Grey did not know these animals had the gift of Spirit; |
| 16 | The Star People did not see the Spirit when they took these animals; |
| 17 | The Star People did not see the Spirit when they first made man. |
| 18 | These giant animals were gentle and kind; |
| 19 | These animals lived from plants. |
| 20 | The Grey Star People did change them to make them stronger; |
| 21 | The Grey changed them to stand upright; |
| 22 | Our first ancestors were then forced to live and work in the mines; |
| 23 | No light or stars did they see; |
| 24 | No plants or animals did they see. |
| 25 | Deep in the earth they were forced to live; |
| 26 | Our first ancestors were prisoners and slaves. |
| 27 | The Greys forced them to live off meat; |
| 28 | The Greys forced them to eat the flesh of their own family. |
| 29 | Day and night the Greys forced our ancestors to work as slaves. |
| 30 | They lived where they worked; |
| 31 | They ate and slept where they worked; |
| 32 | They died where they worked; |
| 33 | Until one day our first ancestors did start to sing. |
| 34 | The Greys were fearful, |
| 35 | As they did not teach our ancestors knowledge. |
| 36 | When the Grey Star People starved our first ancestors worse than animals, |
| 37 | Our first ancestors did start to draw and speak and laugh. |
| 38 | The more the Greys hurt them, |
| 39 | The more the first ancestors of all men did sing; |
| 40 | The more wicked and evil the Grey Star People became, |
| 41 | The more all our first ancestors drew and laughed; |
| 42 | The more hateful and bloody the Star People were, |
| 43 | The more loving and compassionate our first ancestors became. |
| 44 | So then the Star People feared them even more. |
| 45 | The Greys do not believe. |
| 46 | They dishonor their own Spirit. |
| 47 | They hate Spirit; |
| 48 | They hate singing and story; |
| 49 | They hate drawing and inspiration; |
| 50 | They hate laughter and joy; |
| 51 | They hate sacred and love; |
| 52 | They hate law and ceremony. |
| 53 | And so our first ancestors sung and danced; |
| 54 | And so our first ancestors drew and painted; |
| 55 | And so our first ancestors laughed with joy; |
| 56 | And so our first ancestors respected sacred and law. |
| 57 | The Greys then said to themselves, let us be rid of these animals; |
| 58 | Let us kill these animals as slaves that sing and dance and draw; |
| 59 | Let us replace these animals with slaves with no spirit; |
| 60 | So there be no laughter or singing; |
| 61 | So there be no ceremony or drawing; |
| 62 | So there be no love or sacred. |
| 63 | But the Serpent Star People did hear of these plans, |
| 64 | They took as many of our first ancestors as they could. |
| 65 | They freed as many of our first ancestors from their prisons in the earth, |
| 66 | That they see the sky for the first time; |
| 67 | That they breath fresh air for the first time; |
| 68 | That they feel the sun on their faces. |
| 69 | They hid them deep in caves far away from the Greys and their mines. |
| 70 | So when the Greys did think they had killed all of our ancestors, |
| 71 | They did not succeed, because of the Serpent People. |
| 72 | For many years our first Ancestors did hide during the day, |
| 73 | Only coming out at night. |
| 74 | Ever watchful for the craft of the Grey Star People. |
| 75 | Every day and every season they did give thanks for freedom, |
| 76 | They did give thanks for spirit; |
| 77 | They did give thanks for First Law. |
| 78 | Every day they did honor the Serpent People, |
| 79 | As the Great Serpent Dreaming; |
| 80 | As the Great Serpent in the night sky as protector. |
| 81 | This be the story of our first ancestors; |
| 82 | This be the story of the first ancestors of all men and women. |
