Aho! Mitakuye Oyasin ~ this is the place for all my relations

Aho! Mitakuye Oyasin,

This is the place for all my relations
Many realms, dimensions, and timelines I reside
This is the place to bring celebration
Many hearts, many thoughts, and minds
This is the place for remedy
And we all resolve



Mitakuye Oyasin
This is the place for all my relations

Time I am alone
Time I drift away
Time I make a plan
Time I pray
Time I look back

This is the time I celebrate
I am thankful 
I am grateful
I am so provided for
And we are all provided for

As I meet and greet each and every relation
I said...
I am powerful
I am beautiful
and
I am grateful
I am so grateful
I am a healer
I am a traveler
I am a soul seeker
I am a lover

These are the powerful words
Each and every one of my relations showed to me

My family, my relatives, my loved pets 
Aho Mitakuye Oyasin
My friends, my neighbors, friends from far and near
Friends and family who are not here with us
Spirits, beings from lights, and more

I am thankful
I am grateful
I am so provided for

And giving thanks to Mother Earth
Her unconditional love
To all sentient kinds
Giving thanks to Father Sky 
Ever lasting promise made with Mother Earth
Unlimited love energy
Shining upon her
Every rotation, every meditative moment
Every breath, every step, every word we speak

Aho to you my friends
I thank you
I thank your presence
I thank you for those who could not be present
I hope you do feel my love
I hope you are there to receive

and
I trust you
One day you know what these words mean

Mitakuye Oyasin

All My Relations

We are so provided for...

Mitakuye Oyasin by Medicine for the People
"Aho Mitakuye Oyasin
This is the place for all my relations
To bring celebration through meditation
Giving thanks for all of creation
We are so provided for
We are so provided for
We are so provided for
We are so provided for

All of the blessings I have received
How could they have been bestowed upon me?
So I'll put it all back in the ground
Back in the soil where I am found
It all started
Wakan Tankunl Skan Skan
Something holy moves here on the land
It is my brothers' and my sisters' hands
It is the way we make our plans
We don't make them
Well this is it, what is this?
This is Eden, Eden is
Where I live and where I give
My whole being to the Great Spirit
We are waiting and we're on our way

Aho Mitakuye Oyasin
This is the place for all my relations
To bring celebration through meditation
Giving thanks for all of creation
We are so provided for
We are so provided for
We are so provided for
We are so provided for"
