THE SONG OF NOOEE WHEN HE WENT TO THE SUN

The Rising (Sun) I am going to meet.

(Repeated many times)

WHEN NOOEE KILLED EE-EE-TOY 1

(A Song)

The gun, he gave it to me as a cane;
With it I killed the Brother's heart.


Footnotes

131:1 The reference to the "gun" shows clearly that this song was made after the advent of the white man.
