The horse gallops across the arid plain
its hooves rapidly striking the ground
it stops suddenly and whinnies loudly
it stands up on its hind legs
showing how tall and majestic it is

Its hooves rapidly striking the ground
a man emerges from within the bush
he stands up on its hind legs
showing how tall and majestic he is
spear in hand and bow slung across his back

A man emerges from within the bush
clothed in the skin of the fiercest beasts
spear in hand and bow slung across his back
not an ounce of fear in his eyes

Clothed in the skin of the fiercest beasts
the bravest hunter of his tribe
not an ounce of fear in his eyes
but luckily for the horse,
the hunter needs a new ride
