Nightwish – Creek Mary's Blood lyrics
Soon I will be here no more
You’ll hear my tale
Through my blood
Through my people
And the eagle’s cry
The bear within will never lay to rest

Wandering on Horizon Road
Following the trail of tears

White man came
Saw the blessed land
We cared, you took
You fought, we lost
Not the war but an unfair fight
Sceneries painted beautiful in blood

[Chorus]
Wandering on Horizon Road
Following the trail of tears
Once we were here
Where we have lived since the world began
Since time itself gave us this land

Our souls will join again the wild
Our home in peace and war and death

[Chorus]
X2

[John Two-Hawks]
Hanhepi iyuha mi ihanbla ohinni yelo
Òn sunkmanitutankapi hena, sunkawakanpi watogha hena
Oblaye t’ankapi oihankesni hena
T’at’epi kin asni kiyasni he
Akatanhanpi iwankal
Oblaye t’anka kin
Osicesni mitakuyepi òn
Makoce kin wakan
Wakan Tanka kin òn
Miwicala ohinni – Hanhepi iyuha
Kici – Anpetu iyuha kici yelo
Mi yececa hehaka kin yelo
Na ni yececa sunkmanitutankapi
Kin ka mikaga wowasaka isom
Uncinpi tu weni nitaku keyas ta k’u
Unwakupi e’cela e wiconi
Wanji unmakainapi ta yelo
Anpetu waste e wan olowan
Le talowan winyan ta yelo
Unwanagi pi lel e nita it’okab o’ta
Untapi it’okab o’ta
Na e kte ena òn hanska ohakap
Ni itansni a’u nita ni ihanke yelo

    It means exactly what the others are saying above, when the cherokee's were pushed out of their land because of the indian removal act. They were traveling west of the appalachian mountains along the "trail of tears" where a lot of women and children had died. The song is also telling us about how they felt so connected to their land and it will always be apart of them. The white settlers came in, the indian's welcomed them and took care of them but the settlers had been greedy and stole what was rightfully their's on their quest to turn indians to christianity.
