I Mañainå-hu

I Mañainå-Hu Hu Tutuna Hamyo' Hu Tutuna Hamyo' Maila Mågi gi Fi'on-Hu I sit before my altar as I wake up in the morning Give thanks for my ancestors beside and before me Bring attention to my breathing I know its time to enter The transit to the state of mine of spiritual surrender Center through the air flow stay rooted cuz i'm taro Presence in the breath with the focus of an arrow Careful not to judge let it all be love At my front at my back below me and above My body is a circuit creator wired perfect My purpose on this earth is to learn how I can work it Light the sacred fire with the medicine of clearing Bathe my body in the smoke and let the spirit steer me Hearing voices in the void guide me to the choice I'll make in every moment so I know I'll be on point Anytime I feel confused or overcome with blues I pray with faith in music and I'll always be in tune with I Mañainå-Hu Hu Tutuna Hamyo' Hu Tutuna Hamyo' Maila Mågi gi Fi'on-Hu As I stroll through this jungle of concrete and erasure I come to face the truth in the darkness and and the anger The fear invoked by danger's political nomenclature I now see separates our human nature from creator So the the spirit sparks a prayer between body and air Fingers hold a mudra as I breathe deeply aware My commitment is to listen deeply to ancestors wisdom I check in that my rythym is the essence of whats within Before I make a decision of how I proceed or pass I remember to be given spirits permission/we simply need to ask Sometimes i lead a fast to open up the channels Embrace the flow of knowing growth as begin i to paddle Singing lålai from the ancients in exchanges with the natives Who embraced these generation seperated from our ways which Guide us and unite us and tie us to the sacred I give thanks as i chant prayers in my ancestors language I Mañainå-Hu Hu Tutuna Hamyo' Hu Tutuna Hamyo' Maila Mågi gi Fi'on-Hu
