Thanksgiving Day

The history of injustices,
The endless reign of terror
That is the march of wealth
Sought by every Nation,
Is a cause for celebration. 

Let us thank the Lord our God
For the blood that we have shed,
For the tears the vanquished shed,
For the breaking of the bread
From our newfound fruited plains. 

Remember always the great pains
Our ancestors surely suffered,
By their swords our lives they buffered
From the savage, godless stain. 

The unbelievers that remain
Are a shadow of their evil empire.
Now as their own our God they claim,
Their heathen errors cleansed in fire.

And thus the traitors we brand as liars,
They who brand us a nation of thieves.
The hunger of Indians is not so dire -
We send rice that piles like autumn leaves.
