  • is there a drum beat that plays with this song

  • @smittypants831 Yes, a drum accompanies all the songs when they are being sung in ceremony. It isn't included here to make the words easier to discern, and because this isn't ceremony.

  • Better to learn the correct pronunciation and the meaning before you are in

    the middle of a ceremony and don't know what's going on. Plus it's cheered

    me up a lot to be able to listen to these. Idon't think it's done in a disrespectful way here.

  • @asherah12 Thanks for the post.

  • Thank you for posting these....Such a blessing....My wife passed away last year. She was and Oglala Sioux and very devout in her Indian ways. We used to have a sweat in our back yard....She loved these songs...She's been gone nearly a year now and I miss her as much today as ever...I play these songs and burn some sage because they remind me of her and the good times we had together...It helps .....Thank you again...

  • Thank you for sharing these. Is it possible to get these in a downloaded form so I may listen on my iPod?

  • @asherah12 I am grateful for the writing to have correct pronunciation. Your effort is totally appreciated. Thank you!

  • Thank you so much for these videos they are a help on my walk down the red road. To know the meaning of what I am singing in the inipi and at sundance is huge.

  • @HuhaMaza also on Rosebud and the other Lakota/Dakota/Nakota reservations. You can get many CDs through the Sinte GleskaUniversity bookstore in Mission, SD. Or the White Horse Trading Post in Mission, SD.

    Pilamaya pelo.
