You think I'm an ignorant savage
And you've been so many places
I guess it must be so
But still I cannot see
If the savage one is me
How can there be so much that you don't know?
You don't know...
You think you own whatever land you land on
The earth is just a dead thing you can claim
But I know ev'ry rock and tree and creature
Has a life, has a spirit, has a name
You think the only people who are people
Are the people who look and think like you
But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger
You'll learn things you never knew you never knew
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned?
Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Can you paint with all the colors of the wind?
Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest
Come taste the sun-sweet berries of the earth
Come roll in all the riches all around you
And for once, never wonder what they're worth
The rainstorm and the river are my brothers
The heron and the otter are my friends
And we are all connected to each other
In a cirle, in a hoop that never ends
How high does the sycamore grow?
If you cut it down, then you'll never know
And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon
For whether we are white or copper-skinned
We need to sing with all the voices of the mountain
We need to paint with all the colors of the wind
You can own the earth and still
All you'll own is earth until
You can paint with all the colors of the wind
※原曲の歌詞を揭載しています
私って無知なの？
あなたは色々な大地を知ってる人
でも何もかも知ってるかしら？
あなたの知らないことが山ほどあるわ
知らないことだらけ
あなたが踏み込んだこの大地
生命が息づいてるわ
岩も木もみんな生きてる
生命と心と名前があるのよ
あなたは思い込んでも
自分に似た者だけが人間だって
でも不思議な足跡を見たら
未知の世界がたちまち広がるわ
青い月に吠える狼の声を聞いたことはある？
歯をむく山猫を見た？
山びこと一緒に歌える？
あなたは風の色で絵は描ける？
あなたは風の色で絵は描ける？
森のけもの道を駆けてみて
太陽に熟した野イチゴを食べて
豊かな大地を転がって
大自然に身をまかせるの
大雨も川も私の兄弟
アオサギもカワウソも私の友達
みんな一つに結ばれてる
終わりのない丸い輪のように
すずかけの木はどこまで伸びるの？
切り倒せばそれも分からない
月に吠える狼の声も聞こえない
肌の白い人も赤い肌の人も
山びこと一緒に歌を歌える
風の色を一緒に描き出せる
大地を抱きしめ自然に触れたとき
あなたは風の色を始めて描ける
