maha sagar
muje azaad karta hai
hitata hai
jungli ghas ki tarah
jo jordaar dariya
main behta chala jaata hai.
bhumi aur iski
jordaar hawaaiN
muj ko hatati hain
door le jaati hain
aur meri aatmaN
khushi main
behlah jaati hai.

Untitled Shaman Song
The great sea
frees me, moves me,
as a strong river carries a weed.
Earth and her strong winds
move me, take me away,
and my soul is swept up in joy.
Uvavnuk (Iglulik Eskimo,19th century)[translated by Jane Hirshfield]
