To slay the deer and buffalo;

To slay the deer and buffalo;

 

Here, with his friends, he'd often meet

Here, with his friends, he'd often meet

 

To sing the war-song, dance, and eat.

To sing the war-song, dance, and eat.

 

'Twas here he woo'd the dark-eyed maid,

'Twas here he woo'd the dark-eyed maid,

 

And built his wigwam in my shade;

And built his wigwam in my shade;

 

To me he brought his youthful bride,

To me he brought his youthful bride,

 

And dwelt here till with age he died.
