Navajo Story

Can you hear them? The tribal chants Chanted only when a member advance Can you feel it reverberating in your bones? Can you hear the distant tribal people's tones? With binoculars - watch the tribal daughters dance There's the chief with a headdress and mask There's the tribal elder - concocting a potion There's the diplomatic princess - with all of her devotion There goes the knights and warriors - ready for the hunt You can hear the distant fanfare - the trumpets trump Stop and listen to the maracas bells Gather 'round the campfire - listening to the stories they tell Speaking Navajo to the chief - you will soon find He's marrying off his daughter - 'cause now it's her time
