Run, wolf warrior, to ends eternal
Through the wreckage of the death of the day
Scent of silence under starlight spinning
A captured beast within a human skinAre you searching for long lost landscapes
Lit by flowers and crystal cascades?
Where the lamb lies down with the lion
Where the wolf is one with the wildRun, wolf warrior, through kingdoms’ chaos
Senseless cities and ghost towns towering
Howl, O hunter, though few know you’re crying
Face upturned into that midnight moonAre you hunting for mystic mountains
Where the air is like liquid laughter?
Where the beasts inherit the earth
Where the last again will be firstRun, wolf warrior, to hide your hunger
The rain will wash away the pains of the day
In your eyes there are cold fires burning
Tongues of flame that can never be tamedAre you running from Man’s delusion
Majestic madness and your exclusion
To where the lamb lies down with the lion?Are you running down ancient pathways
Through this dark and deserted land
To where man is once more a child?Are you running to freedom’s fortress
By the side of wide open seas
Where the wolf is one with the wild?Run, run, run…
Run, run, run, run, run, run on, run on through the rain…

I was addicted to Wolf’s Rain all through highschool. It is a really really sad anime, but it is also a pretty good one.
The song fits almost perfectly to the Wolf Warriors mission and to the pain wolves are going through now. Like when it says, “Are you running from Man’s delusion”. I guess wolves are really trying to run from man’s delusion of them being evil monsters.
Great song, Nabeki. Thanks for posting it.

Dear Nabeki, thank you for posting. Please, please Judge Molloy, you are our hope to save our wolves. Please don’t let them down. I have just called and left a message at the WH regarding the Mexican Gray wolves latest murder. I am truly afraid we are losing them. Forever. That is a long, long time.

I was just thinking SoCalWolfGal that the wolf hunts are due to start on Sept 4…that’s not very far away, only about six weeks or so…I wait each day for Judge Molloy’s ruling that will save the wolves from the awful, brutal hunts. So much damage has already been done to wolves last year due to the hunts, they let the genie out of the bottle and all the wolf haters came pouring out with their hateful rhetoric. It’s going to take sometime to undue the damage. I believe Judge Molloy will relist the wolves, I have to believe that, the opposite is to painful to contemplate.
On the Mexican grays…this is simply another war declared on wolves. The first thing is yanking those receivers away from the ranchers and the second is catching poachers and giving them serious jail time and fines. This must stop. All we have left are the 38 wolves in the wild and the captive bred wolves.
For the Mexican gray wolves, For the wild ones,
Nabeki

Welcome Thunder,
You can join Wolf Warriors on FB and join us on Howling for Justice. We are dedicated to speaking the truth about wolves and working to help wolves survive in this ever hostile environment. This is a grass roots movement that’s picking up steam. Our foes are many, the obstacles huge but remember what Margaret Mead, the famous anthropologist said:
“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.’
For the wolves, For the wild ones,

Hi, I’m Zeva, and what you are doing here is great 🙂
I wouldn’t call humans monsters, just most people have distorted views of most animals. Seriously, if primates didn’t exist, wolves and all canines would be on top, but since we do exist, we are constantly pushing them further down.
It’s not just wolves, but all creatures. Already have many species died by our hand, and some are on the very brink of destruction. People need to understand that every being has a soul and emotions. Of course most of us don’t want to be guilty for killing other living beings, so they convince themselves that they do not have souls.
Eventually, we will not destroy this planet, it will destroy us. Once we become to much of a pest, it will wipe us out and continue living the way it was supposed to; without disruptions. So rest well knowing that someday they will all be free and happy.
Best regards,
Z
