As I lay prostrate upon the soft forest floor
The coolness of mother earth pervades me
I inhale the scent of crushed pine needles
And the fragrance of ancient lost summers
Losing myself in the silence of meditation
I traverse a landscape of visions and dreams
My spirit soothed by the sound of swaying trees
And leaves rustling in the damp morning breeze
Stirring the air in a peaceful moment of bliss
Ah, the whispering of the si-si-gwa-d
And unto you Gitchi Manito
I share my senses
My spirit, my soul
And give you thanks
For all that is
All that will be
And all that ever was
