“Dzil Yijiin/Black Mountainâ€Â

Kiis'aanii & Dine’ why has it come to be
While we argue with one another
Corporate Amerika rapes our Mother of her seeds
They turn Kiis'aanii against their Dine’ brothers
Dzil Yijiin extended so high
Visualized high above where it touches Father Sky
This is our existence our home land
Both for the Dine’ and the Kiis'aanii clans
In this land so rich of tradition and sacred heritage
Yet corporate Amerika still wants to our Mother Earth
Committing devastation and great sacrileges
This most sacred place binds the Kiis'aanii and Dine’
This land of their birth
Dzil Yijiin cannot be separated from its relations
The four sacred mountains represent our Dine’ universe
There is no word for relocation
How can you stop our sacred ceremonies
Our daily obligations
On top of Dzil Yijiin we make our appropriate offerings, prayers, and songs
Our offerings are sacred to us
They will keep us strong
How can we leave our offering place
Tied to this land
Dine’ would not be able to survive in your urban life
We cannot just walk away from Creator
It would be a disgrace
Corporate Amerika is always planning some kind of evil devise
To steal what is not theirs
They strip mine our Mother and kill the air she breaths
They are willing to tear our Mother heart apart
We stand together as one and survive as one
We are part of Earth Mother’s very heart
We are connected to this Holy Land
You cannot move us like you would a grain of sand
Here we are known by the Holy Spirit Beings
In this sacred way our blessingway we will sing
Let us stand together in unity
For this land
Our home of so much beauty
