This Prayer song for Bearded Seal Hunting came to be after bringing my friend and his son out hunting one day in spring. The seal circled us and never ran away. That was when the first verse came," Yugi-ama, Tangran Kana" You that seal down there. the second verse is Yugi-ama Pissurru Amna, Go and hunt that seal over there. First I made Once I moved to Bethel.
