hear these words I speak for my people
The new sun will give birth to a day of tears
The crys of our women will be heard in many lodges
Mothers will weep for husbands and sons
Daughters will cry for fathers and brothers
Please Great Spirit
Dry their tears and turn their crys of sorrow
into songs of joy
Let their hearts sing in the knowledge
that their loved ones died as warriors should
Protecting their families and preserving the freedom
our people have known
since you gave the breath of life to the first warrior
Please Great Spirit, let the spirit of the eagle
keep our warrior's eyes keen
Let brother wind carry their arrows to their mark
I do not ask these things
so that we may destroy our enemies,
but to let us survive and live in peace.
Protect our warriors and welcome my brothers
you choose to take to your lodge
and guide them on their journey
Welcome also, those warriors of our enemies
who will join you today
We honor you with the battle
for it is you who is the giver of all we have
and the maker of the path we walk.
