<\/p>\n
I begin in the depths of the water, says,<\/p>\n
I begin where the primordial sounds forth, says,<\/p>\n
What is of value is the ceremony says,<\/p>\n
what is of value is gold, says<\/p>\n
I am a woman who looks into the insides of<\/p>\n
things and<\/p>\n
investigates, says,<\/p>\n
The tracks of the feet, says<\/p>\n
The path of sap and dew says<\/p>\n
In this way it is taught to the children, says<\/p>\n
In this way is taught to our people, says<\/p>\n
It is health and life, says<\/p>\n
We don’t want to break our bonds and our root,<\/p>\n
says<\/p>\n
Root of sap and of dew, says<\/p>\n
Root of greeness and clarity<\/p>\n
