Hvorfor - mit hjerte græder - jeg vender
ansigtet bort, kikker ud på solen, den varmer
mine kinder, tørrer mine tårer. Ønsker
at solen også i dag må tørre
alle jeres tårer, brænde dem fast
i jeres kinder. Timer dage og uge får vi
lov at bruge. Sol, stjerner og måne dem
få vi lov at låne. De store mænd
prøver at vaske blodet af deres hænder,
men det vil forevigt følge dem, ingen kan
vaske sine hænder rene. Når i står
og kikker på den tomme plads, er den ikke
tom, ånderne er der. Hvisker det lille ord
hvorfor. Ingen kan give dem svar, ingen kan lindre
deres smerter, tørre deres tårer,
tilbage er kun det lille ord hvorfor. Rid videre
som det stolte folk i er, rid videre på
Tårenes. sender bøn - tro - håb
- kærlighed til Ånderne og det stolte
folk. knus og kram

Translation to English
Why - my heart cries - I turn my face away,
look out on the sun, it warms my cheeks, wipes
my tears. Want the sun too today to wipe all your
tears, burn them firmly in your cheeks. Hours
and weeks, we get to use. Sun, stars and moon,
we get to borrow. The great men are trying to
wash the blood of their hands, but it will forever
follow them, no one can wash their hands clean.
When you're looking at the empty space, it's not
empty, the spirits are there. Whispering the little
word. No one can give them answers, no one can
ease their pain, wipe their tears, back is just
the little word why. Ride on like the proud people
you are, ride on to the tårenes. Sending
prayer - faith - hope - love to the spirits and
the proud people. Hugs and kisses

Good Thursday morning riders & support
staff. A few less miles today, but still a important
part of the journey. Hoping Warriors & horses
get some rest the next couple of days. Enjoy your
quiet time to reflect & hope each of you have
received something from this experience. Your
commitment & dedication is there, as you are
nearing the final days of the ride. God speed
& safe journey. Many blessings to you all
from Alaska & Merry Christmas.

A
number of people have been asking about the names
of the men who were hung. Some have wanted to
put posts on the group page that are not the actual
truth of the hangings. A number of years ago I
made up 2 pages for the Women's March giving the
names of ALL the imprisoned men (including those
who were hung) and all the the women who were
left to be the head person in their families.
The pages are on our website and have been for
a number of years. I know many of you do not actually
look at those extra pages, so I am going to put
the links on here including the page I wrote about
the history of the 1862 war. I will put them below
this section
