Though art thou an outcast

Thy mind and heart are set

Thy dreams are never shattered by words or acts

Thy courage is what breaks all the curses and words apart

Balto, though you have endured much and suffered

Your real journey is about to begin

But do not despair!

A day will come when the sun shines its light upon you.

Being a champion doesn’t mean you have to win a race

No, a true champion, Balto, is one who shows the others that there is far more then just a finishing line

            A true champion shows them that with a heart, a dream, and the urge to keep on trying is the way to accomplish your dreams

But having a dream isn’t always what gives you the strength to go on, Balto

            Knowing that you are loved or in love with another is a way of gaining strength when all else fails

            Having someone to love is, by far, the greatest achievement one can ever accomplish

But hear me out Balto

            You have wolf heritage and you should be proud not saddened

You were born to accomplish great things and yet you weep about your heritage!

            Balto, you have a gift that no one in the world has

Show the world your gift and be not afraid

Look beyond the distant hills, hybrid

The aurora glitters in the night sky

One day it will light your way through the darkest of nights to the place where your loved ones are

            How do I know this?

I have seen it

For I am the stars that light the sky

            I am the rain and skies 

I am the trees and flowers

            I am the sunlight and the moonlight too

I am the human that walks by day

            I am the dragon that flies in and out of stories of children

I am the unicorn who heals the sick

            I am the night that covers your dreams

I am your mother

            I am your father

I am your kin

            I am you
