	Lyrics Wait! Maker, Modeler, look at us, listen to us, don't let us fall, don't leave us aside, god in the sky, heart of earth, give us our sign, our word, as long as there is day, as long as there is light. When it comes to the sowing, the dawning, will it be a greening road, a greening path? Give us a steady light, a level place, a good light, a good place, a good life and beginning, give us all of this, thou Hurricane newborn thunderbolt, raw thunderbolt, falcon, sovereign plumed serpent, bearer, begetter, grandmother of day, grandmother of light, when it comes to the sowing, the dawning (based on a translation by Dennis Tedlock)
