Bronze Horse in the sunrise
You've got the wind in your mane
The echoes of ages, are all calling your name
Sheep-herding princess, she wants to tame you
And she knows you're wild
And she knows you're free
Now in the rose light
The dawn stirs the breeze
From the Echoing Mountain
She brings gifts for thee
The Lamb by the swift brook
He knows her by name
And He knows she's wild
And He knows she's free
Now here my Legend
Of that Pegasus King
The Spirit will take you
From you're night to His Dream
The Wisdom of Ages
She wants to tame you
And she knows you're wild
And she'll keep you FREE!
This song was composed in 1975.
It was based on the following North American Indian Legend:
And from the North, shall come a Stallion of Bronze
Whom none with guile shall conquer
Only one young in limb and mind
Will tame this Stallion of the Echoing Mopuntain
And he, not by the common arts of man
But by the practice of understanding and affection
To such a one shall the stallion yield
And he will become to him as one man becomes to another
When the practice of understanding and affection
Have brought to them Peace and Contentment.
