Part One — Indian Love Lyrics and Other Verse Selected From the Songs of the North American Indians
My Bark Canoe (Ojibwa)
In the still night, the long night through,
I guide my bark canoe,
My love, to you.
While the stars shine, and falls the dew,
I seek my love in bark canoe—
I seek for you.
It is I, love, your lover true,
Who glides the stream in bark canoe.
It glides to you,
My love, to you.
