White Floating Clouds. Clouds like the plains come and water the earth, Sun embraces the earth that she may be fruitful.

Moon, lion of the north, bear of the west badger of the south, wolf of the east, eagle of the heavens, shrew of the earth, elder war hero, younger war hero, warriors of the six mountains of the worlds, intercede with the cloud people for us, that they may water the earth.

Medicine bowl, cloud bowl, and water vase give us your hearts, that the earth may be watered.

I make the ancient road of meal, that my song may pass straight over it — the ancient road.

White shell bead woman who lives where the sun goes down, mother whirlwind, father Sus »sistinnako, mother Ya’ya, creator of good thoughts, yellow woman of the north, blue woman of the west, red woman of the south, white woman of the east, slightly yellow woman of the zenith, and dark woman of the nadir, I ask your intercession with the cloud people.

Bring us soft gentle rain to our field and the hearts of Humankind.

Asquali, Holy Ancestors.
