Campos de batalha

Battlefields

Nas colinas, os índios viviamDown the hills, Indians were living
Continuando seu caminhoCarrying on their way
O homem branco veio e tentou ocuparWhite man came and tried to occupy
O que era sagrado, suas terrasWhat was sacred, their lands

O Far West era o cenárioThe Far West was the scenery
De uma das maiores batalhas da históriaOf one of the greatest battles in history
Entre índios e o homem brancoBetween Indians and the white man
Lutando pela cultura e pelas terrasFighting for culture and the lands

General Custer trouxe seus homensGeneral Custer brought his men
E começou a assustar os pobres nativosAnd started to fright the poor natives
Mas o que eles não podiam imaginarBut what they could not imagine
Índios governaram esses campos de batalhaIndians ruled those battlefields

Trazendo de volta para os camposBringing back up to the fields
Tentando ganhar o ouro para elesTrying to earn the gold for them
Aumentando as lutas pelo povoIncreasing fights for the people
General Custer escreveu / selou seu fimGeneral Custer wrote/sealed his end

Governo enviou a Sétima TropaGovernment sent the Seventh Troop
Para tirar as tribos de suas terrasTo take the tribes off their lands
Índios governados por Crazy Horse ChiefIndians ruled by Crazy Horse Chief
Em Little Big Horn era a cenaAt Little Big Horn was the Scene

O General Custer ordenou: Ataque!General Custer ordered: Attack!
Mas os nativos estavam mais bem armadosBut natives were better armed
Eles aniquilam soldados brancosThey annihilate white soldiers
Apenas Custer permaneceuOnly Custer has remained

Depois disso, o governo enviou mais soldadosAfter that, the government has sent more soldiers
Para se livrar dos índiosTo get rid of the Indians
Pobres nativos não resistiramPoor natives couldn’t resist
A maioria deles desapareceuMost of them vanished away
Ou perderam sua riqueza e cultura originalOr lost their wealth and original culture
Tudo isso por causa da ganância do homem brancoAll of this because of white man greed
