My Heart Soars

(Rewritten version of My Heart Soars by Chief Dan George)

The sweet aroma of the flowers,

the singing of the birds,

the fierce ray of sunshine,

speaks to me.

 

The young voices of children,

the soft sensation of grass,

the beautiful rush of sea water,

speaks to me.

 

The scent of salmon,

the beauty of the atmosphere,

the squeaking of the squirrels

speaks to me.

 

The hollering of the waterfall,

the young scent of the deep-sea,

the smell of foliage

and the lumber of trees.

They speak to me

 

And my heart soars.
