The First Feast of Thanks

[Intro]

Soft drums echo in the dawn,

Smoke rising, spirits drawn.

[Verse 1]

Long before the pilgrims came,

We gathered under sacred flame.

The corn was gold, the rivers wide,

We thanked the earth, our hearts in pride.

[Pre-Chorus]

The wind carried songs through the trees,

Blessings whispered on the breeze.

[Chorus]

Oh, the first feast of thanks begun,

Under the same eternal sun.

We shared the land, the gifts, the fire,

In peace, in hope, in one desire.

[Verse 2]

Strangers came across the sea,

Hungry eyes and hearts in need.

We offered food, we offered grace,

Different tongues, one human face.

[Pre-Chorus]

Hands met in trust, not in fear,

Ancient voices drawing near.

[Chorus]

Oh, the first feast of thanks begun,

Under the same eternal sun.

We shared the land, the gifts, the fire,

In peace, in hope, in one desire.

[Bridge]

Drums of earth, hearts of flame,

Different peoples, one same name.

Thankful souls in autumn’s light,

Dreaming stars that bless the night.

[Outro]

And still the fire’s embers glow,

Where gratitude and friendship grow.

[End]
