K-pop Lyrics

SUNDANCER

Artist Note: This song honors a most beautiful and sacred ceremony: The Sun Dance. This ceremony is the highest spiritual expression of the Lakota people. With great reverence I offer this song as the expression of my experience with this ceremony.

Sundancer, attach your spirit to the light / Dance for the people...sundancer
Sundancer, like an eagle you take flight / Your heart is strong...you sing your song
Drums like Thunder / As you dance across the sky
We stand in wonder / At this gift you give

Sundancer, attach your spirit to this tree of life / Prayer for peace...pray for peace
Sundancer, pray for the little ones we bring into this world today / May they find their way
Drums like Thunder / As you dance across the sky
We stand in wonder / At this gift you give...sundancer

Lakota:
Wankatakiya etunwan was'agya waciyo!
(Looking upward, dance with strength!)
Tunkasila iyuskinyan cekiyayo!
(Joyfully, pray to Tunkasila!)
Mitakuwe ob yanin kte lo!
(You and my relations will live!)

Sundancer, attach your spirit to the sun / Dance for your people now / Dance for our people too
Sundancer, may all hearts become as one as we dance with you
As we dance with you / May we dance with you / Dance with you


Sundancer...Sundancer...Sundancer...Sundancer
