Ancestors in My Bones

Nohtawinan kihci-kisikohk eyayan
Pitane miyweyihcikatek ki-wiyowin
Ohcihcipayik ki-tipeyihcikewin
Ka-isi-natohtakawiyan kisikohk
Pitane ekosi isi waskitaskamihk
Anohc ka-kisikak miyinan ni pahkwesikaniminan
Mina tahtwaw kisikaki
Isi-kasinamawinan ka-ki-mayi-totamahk
Pisiskeyiminan kici-eka maci-mamitoneyihtamahk
Iyekatenamawinan ka mayatahk
Pitane ekosi ihkik

I feel the ancestors in my bones
They're calling me to protect my home
Mother Earth is crying for us to atone
I cannot do this alone

Heya heya ha heya hey o
Heya heya ha heya hey o
Heya heya ha heya hey o
Heya heya ha heya hey o

I feel the ancestors in my bones
They're calling me to protect my home
These teachings are old they're what we have known
We must pass them to the children before they are grown

Heya heya ha heya hey o
Heya heya ha heya hey o
Heya heya ha heya hey o
Heya heya ha heya hey o

Do you feel the ancestors in your bones
Are they calling you to protect your home
Don't let society fool you
Into doubting where you belong
Together our circle is strong

Heya heya ha heya hey o
Heya heya ha heya hey o
Heya heya ha heya hey o
Heya heya ha heya hey o
