Grant Maloy Smith - Dust Bowl: American Stories

Isht a Lhampko (Have Strength)

Earth below my blanket
Sky above my head
Just outside my vision
The sky was turning red

Water is our lifeline
Rain is like our blood
Why's our whole world dying?
Lord, what have we done?

But it's all right
We're still breathing
Isht a Lhampko
We're not leaving

Air has come against us
Clouds of humma roll
Listen to the wind song
Singing from his soul

Fire has cooked our rabbits
And lit our skies for years
We will not be beaten
We walked the trail of tears

But it's all right
We're still breathing
Isht a Lhampko
We're not leaving

But it's all right
We're still breathing
Isht a Lhampko
We're not leaving

But it's all right
We're still breathing
Isht a Lhampko
We're not leaving

But it's all right
We're still breathing
Isht a Lhampko
We're not leaving
