The Papago tribe, -Healing Song:
The sun is rising.
At either side a bow is lying.
Beside the bows are lion babies.
The sky is pink.
That is all.
The moon is setting.
At either side are bamboos for arrow making.
Beside the bamboos are wildcat babies.
They walk uncertainly.
That is all.
The sun is slowly departing.
It is slower in its setting.
Black bats will be swooping
When the sun is gone.
That is all.
The spirit children are beneath.
They are moving back and forth.
They roll in play
Among tufts of white eagle down.
That is all.
In the great night my heart will go out.
Toward me the darkness comes rattling.
In the great night my heart will go out.
At either side a bow is lying.
Beside the bows are lion babies.
The sky is pink.
That is all.
The moon is setting.

Beside the bamboos are wildcat babies.
They walk uncertainly.
That is all.
The sun is slowly departing.
It is slower in its setting.

When the sun is gone.
That is all.
The spirit children are beneath.

They roll in play
Among tufts of white eagle down.
That is all.
Toward me the darkness comes rattling.
In the great night my heart will go out.
