Sun Chant
It was raining on and off. "Do a sun dance," she said.
"I don't know a sun dance," I said, "But I do know a sun chant."
I got the words a little wrong to begin with but Ailz set me right.
It goes...
"We all are one with the eternal sun
For ever and ever and ever."
Which I understand to be a translation of this chant in one of the native American languages
Ku-atay, leno, leno ma-hotay
Hi-ano. hi-ano, hi-ano.
The others picked up the tune and joined in.
And I swear that as we sang the sun came out and when we stopped it went back in again...
