Northern men

We're Northern men,Wood and rivers;We are in a foreign land.(Repeat)
Like leaves in the windWithout roads and no bridges,The four winds.(Repeat)
We are the women men very far north;The people of the valleys, mountains.(Repeat)
Forgotten in historyBut we do our part!You'll know, finally!(Repeat)

Like the wolf, we huntbeavers, foxes;Like the wolf, we hide in the dark.(Repeat)
We go down the waterfalls,Canoes filled skinsAll for the glory of our citizens.(Repeat)
The lives of passengers is poor, hardThe life of women is too!(Repeat)
And all our childrenIn the forest they go,To join the travelers!(Repeat)
