Gunni-Ma

And he said whilst Euragai provided the light over autumns mist,
this is Gunni-ma, our mother, and she is to be loved,
she will give our women strength and our men their place,
our children shall grow and learn from her and she will be our keeper,
love her, care for her, for she is your Gii (heart)....
