Nahko Bear - Mitakyasin Oyasin lyrics

[Sample of man talking] That seems to me an easy thing for us to say You know, I think we can say that and mean it And I think those are really great words and feelings and intentions Because they all have to do with what nature wants And what spirit wants to happen through us, you know We're articulating And being present and showing up for that next step, you know Thank you, we are grateful, we are gathered to be able to receive a greater wisdom So that we might be able to help all living things I mean, that's a prayer [Chorus] Aho Mitakuye Oyasin This is the place for all my relations To bring celebration through meditation Giving thanks for all of creation We are so provided for We are so provided for We are so provided for We are so provided for [Verse] All of the blessings I have received How could they have been bestowed upon me? So I'll put it all back in the ground Back in the soil where I am found It all started Wakan Tankunl Skan Skan Something holy moves here on the land It is my brothers' and my sisters' hands It is the way we make our plans We don't make them Well this is it, what is this? This is Eden, Eden is Where I live and where I give My whole being to the Great Spirit We are waiting and we're on our way [Chorus] Aho Mitakuye Oyasin This is the place for all my relations To bring celebration through meditation Giving thanks for all of creation We are so provided for We are so provided for We are so provided for We are so provided for
