Our struggle

“Dzil Yijiin – Black Mountain

Why has it come to be for Dine
Why has it come to be for Kiisaanii
While we argue over this Holy Land
Corporate AmeriKa rapes our Earth Mother of her seeds
They have turned Kiisaanii against Dine
Dzil Yijiin extended so high
Visualized high above where it touches Father Sky
This is our existence
The ancestors home
The Clan people of the Dine and Kissaanii
Our home of sacred tradition
Our sacred heritage
This place where our ancestors spirits roam
Dzil Yijiin cannot be separated from its relations
Yet Corporate AmeriKa does not care
They only want to ravage the sacredness of Dzil Yijiin
Committing devastation and great sacrileges
This most sacred of holy places
Binds the Dine and Kiisaanii to this land of their birth
Dzil Yijiin cannot be separated from its relations
The four sacred mountains represent the holy ways of Dine' and Kiis'aanii
There is no word for relocation
How can you stop our sacred ceremonies
Our daily obligations
On the top of Dzil Yijiin we make our appropriate offerings, songs, and prayers
Our sacred way, our offerings and prayers will keep us strong
How can we leave our sacred place of offerings
Tied to this land and with out this Holy Land
Dine and Kiisaanii would not be able to survive
We cannot just walk away from Creators gift
We would be disgraced
This Corporate AmeriKa is always devising some evil way
To steal and take what is not theirs
They are willing to tear our Earth Mother's belly apart
They strip our Mother's flesh and kill the air
To nourish their greed
Clan people we must stand together as one
In order to survive as part of our Mother's very heart
Clan people we are connected to this Holy Land
We will not be moved like the sheep we herd
Here we are known by the Holy Spirit beings
In this sacred way we will sing our blessingway song
Clan people stand in unity
This is our country
Our Dine' Tah
Our beauty way
