Tlanuwa in the Sky

Lyrics

[Verse 1] High on a rock where the clouds roll by Lived Tlanuwa Wings so wide Feathers shining Red and gold Brave young guardian Strong and bold [Chorus] Tlanuwa in the sky Flying high Flying high (hey!) Watch him circle Watch him glide Keeper of the mountain side Tlanuwa in the sky Flying high Flying high When trouble comes He hears the call Big heart Brave heart He protects us all [Verse 2] Down in the river Dark and deep Uktena twisted Curled in sleep Scales like stone and eyes that gleam Whispering shadows into dreams [Pre-Chorus] Wind said “Listen Something’s wrong” Owls all quiet Night too long Children hiding Fires low “Tlanuwa Tlanuwa Time to go” [Chorus] Tlanuwa in the sky Flying high Flying high (whoa) Watch him circle Watch him glide Keeper of the mountain side Tlanuwa in the sky Flying high Flying high When trouble comes He hears the call Big heart Brave heart He protects us all [Bridge] [Clap rhythm starts] Step-step Clap-clap Stomp the ground “Turn those scary dreams around” “Back Uktena You can’t stay” “Dark old fear We chase you away” (hey!) [Verse 3] Feather Scale and thunder sound River splashes Shaking ground Tlanuwa shouts “The kids stay free” Uktena dives deep in the sea [Chorus] Tlanuwa in the sky Flying high Flying high (hey!) Watch him circle Watch him glide Keeper of the mountain side Tlanuwa in the sky Flying high Flying high When we’re scared and feeling small We sing your song You hear our call [Outro] So when the night feels big and wide Look for wings against the sky Softly whisper Strong and kind “Brave like Tlanuwa Heart and mind”
