Ne Ha Nee
Long ago, ‘twas here, I know,
Lived the fairest Indian maid.
Daughter of a chieftain brave,
Here beside the lake she stayed.
Far and near,
The waters clear,
Blessed her from their deep domain.
Blessed her with this lovely name…
Ne Ha Neé ,
It must be she is heaven’s daughter
For her eyes and the skies
Form the lake’s clear water.
Sunlight plays, dancing rays
While the ripples bless her
On the shore evermore
Where the waves caress her.
Far along the shimmering shoal,
The shallow waters clear
Echo to her lovely voice
As she is drawing near.
See her smile, all the while,
For the sunbeams taught her
To be gay all the way.
Ne Ha Neé , Clear Water.
