LYRICS
WAKAN TANKA UNSHIMALA YE WANI
KTA CA LECAMON
GREAT SPIRIT, HAVE PITY ON ME
I WANT TO LIVE, THAT IS WHY I AM DOING THIS
I have started to sing this 4 times a day for 4 days. I realized I never forgave myself for not being able to keep my Son from harm. He died violently in 2008 at the age of 27. I thought I had dealt with it. I had to admit to myself, I hadn’t. I have much work to do here still. Time to forgive myself and others.
What happened if you don’t mind me asking?
Sending you lots of love and divine light to your precious soul !! May the universe help you heal your broken heart. Aho!
👁💜🌌
It’s only been a year since you posted but I pray the Healing you’ve been seeking has been occurring & will continue. I lost 2 of my 3 younger brothers to gun shots to their heads & there was no perceivable Justice making me as the oldest & a self appointed caretaker since childhood feel utterly devastated.😭💔😭💔😭
You deserve forgiveness
I’m a young Lakota girl who is still learning to follow the red road I pray to the creator
Follow your heart sweetie, it's the good way. I agree with your comment 100%!♥👑💎😉
tod@s estamos aprendiendo en este camino...bendiciones!

My child, my precious one. I acknowledge you and want to share some wisdom with you. there is a male rain and a female rain. the mixture of these waters give way to the moisture, mist and youth rain that exists at the peaks of the holy mountains. from here we pray continuously creating positive thoughts toward these mountains. express your wishes, desires and thoughts to them, my daughter, so that you may walk and journey in beauty, harmony and well-being.
David Swallow is my TAHANSI, my brother, I've known him and his family for many years, he is a great man, he stuck to his path and belief that the Lakota way of being including the Wiwang Wacipi (Sundance) that he conducted every August on some very sacred ground between the communities of Evergreen and Porcupine on the Pine Ridge Oglalla Sioux (Lakota) reservation in South Dakota. One year he stood up to the tribal government and the federal governments efforts to stop his dance using an excuse that the land wasnt his and that it belonged to another family, they harrassed us with tribal police and threats from the family that claimed to own the land, he sent a message through my wife May and I to Leonard Crow Dog, because he knew we were going to Crow Dogs paradise because my good friend and bro Williard Fool Bull was giving my other good friend a Pawnee man at that named Myron Old Bear Rush and his Javanese Wife a Lakota wedding and naming ceremony. After this we went back to Davids and started dancing and Leonard and his son came and danced with us for a day to show support. Around mid day a BLACK HELECOPTER WITH NO MARKINGS AND WINDSHIELD SO TINTED YOU COULD NOT SEE PEOPLE INSIDE IT, CAME OUT OF NOWHERE, BEING VERY VERY SILENT COMPARED TO MOST COPTERS, IT SWOOPED IN AT VERY LOW LEVEL AND CIRCLED OUR CAMP AND ARBOR SO CLOSE WE COULD FEEL THE WIND OF THE PROPELLER BLADES! Still David did not falter, and continued on with the dance, remaining at the same location for a number of years until they moved it across the creek closer to the main road on property that was not disputed. Ive since moved off the rez and havent seen my brother for several years except on YOU TUBE and Im proud of him for posting his knowledge and continuing to share the ways. Ive heard that he no longer conducts the Sundance and that his son Alfred has stepped up, and im proud of him as well, ive known him since he was a teen ager, he was always polite and respectful to me and my wife. Even when he was twisting off doing teenage things rather then dancing! LOL! Nyla Helper Davids wife is a beautiful spirit herself and had much respect for my wife May who was a school teacher and evidently had been Nylas teacher in grade school one year! May and Nyla were good friends as well. Now Im 63 years old and partially disabled and stuck on the west coast. Thinking about the finest times of my life from the late 80's to the early 2000's with my Oyate back in South Dakota, Ill find my way back someday, somehow............Mitakuye Oyasin!
When we sing this song, people tend to forget or don't know that its a sad time, the family is usually crying at the fact that their relative has to carry his prayer that way but, are also proud of the bravery of the warrior to commit and offer his blood as a sacrifice that our people will live.
We love to hear you sing Tracy!❤
Living Prayers For Comfort and A Season Of Joy 🕊️🙏❤️
@@christinjixinuniwalex6411 Christianity is part of what killed so many of the indigenous people.
I cry when I hear these songs. They are not only beautiful, but comes straight from our hearts directly to Great Wakan Tanka and thanks to this we have direct contact with our Creator, Great Spirit. Greatings to all Native American, never loose you ways and forget, who you truly are, because you are amongs limited number or Real People of this Earth. And I know, what I saying, because I'm one of the limited number of real Polish People - not many of us left in my country. So be yourself and be proud of your culture, tradition, language, ancestors and history. Stay stil and strong. Hoghw!
Beautiful
Pidamaya do “Thank you”
❤❤❤🦅
I am sitting here with tears running down my face in joy. I need to get back to the inipi
(Aho) that means I agree I should get back in inipi to I love being Lakota
Same with us over here on the East
I am far away from home...this song brings joy to my heart. I want to go back home...
You're not the lone ranger..
Well said. Thank you 🙏
Mr Swallow if you read this....I just wanted to tell you how much I have enjoyed your posts over the years..including this one.May the Great Spirit Bless You and your Ffamily and all the Lakota Nation.Aho!Bright Moments from Australia🐝🌈
this is originally a piercing song usually sung at sundance. Thats why it is saying have pity on me
I fought through life not knowing who I was. After 5 years finding out i was native i felt completely whole. So I am on the red road as I hear this song this morning I'm blessed to stay strong on this journey. To others stay positive and always move forward. Aho 🙏 🦅
Aho kola's this Six Eagles and remembering my brothers during this piercing time of Sun Dance and their sacrifice for their families and the people...very very sacred time for a warrior...
Thank u First Born Chaska
This is my very Favorite song...The first time I heard this inipi song was in 1991 @ PineRidge Reservation in South Dakota, preparing for my first Vision Quest. Very healing and the awakening of my Shamanistic Ancestral memories with many spiritual gifts...I've been healing animals, family and friends my whole life, started as a child...And I believe I started "Self Healing" with this Forgiveness song. I Am so Honored and Grateful for David Swallow and Family for these teachings. Aho'
humbleca your self. that's not something our people talk and tell people about, you should feel good that the creator gave you your gifts but don't go around telling everyone you know for fun.
Truth
yes, you should not do hambloca in public like this. it is wasicu nonsense. stop.
good morning, can you please tell me how those songs are sacred ? Is it a holly medecine song ? Thank you for your note and for your respons .
like the wacu cares ,they care less for our prayers ,you stop!!!
The blessing of forgiveness have restored me. Thank you
I am so thankful for this medicine. I have been praying for
this for over 20 years. This drum beats in my dna. I have been lost
too long. I pray for mercy. I pray for Mother. I pray for our
children. aho
I am grateful to JuneLaGrand, Santa Clara- CA. for her traditional women and men's circles; teaching many of these songs. She led many people to the Red Road, was traditional and will have my gratitude forever. Like to give a shout-out to my extended family Jack and Mary Hyatt of Sunnyvale CA. I lost no. addresses and am to ill to travel. If you see this contact me on FB. I want to see you once more
Our nation will rise soon

@@LiloUkulele Mr. Ryan: you are stating, publicly and explicitly that this song - an encouragement song aka piercing song is NOT a sun dance song. and is ONLY meant for sweat?
i am going to have to vociferously disagree with you, and plainly tell you, after 80 sun dances that i have attended in the last 28 years... that you, sir, are WRONG. this is SPECIFICALLY a song for when we are being pierced during the dance to encourage us. quite often, the song (OLOWAN) will change up as the man lies does to be pierced.
but i am glad you are such an expert to tell us what this song is and is not. cool!
This is not strictly a sweatlodge song. It is also used in Sundance. An encouragement song during piercing as hypnotherapycw has already pointed out. You write in Lakota that this is not the truth, that this song is only for sweatlodge and that is too bad because it is absolutely not true and because you say it in Lakota people might believe you. These young ones need to know these ways to carry them on and to pass them on to their young ones and you are of no help with that by miss informing them. Though most people that have been to Sundance and/or have grown up around these ways already know that what you said about this song was not true, but for the rest that don't and those people out there that wish to learn and respect the Lakota ways, please learn about that which you're speaking of so that the information you give is right and ACTUALLY helps to carry on these beautiful ways for future generations.
@@babalokenath1 David's Tree Day Was Yesterday! Everyone stay calm it's a difficult time for so many, as WE are here treading water play it again and refocus for The Dancers holding onto their own lives and this is the Sacred, The Hoop hasn't mended yet, so have some kindness twards each other! Much Love From The Susquehanna River
Praying for y'all during this global crisis. How Beautiful is Forgiveness ❣️
Great Spirit bless All Native People
I’m a chichimeca who lost the red road my traditional ways for the life of the American way and I regret every day my stupidity
Don't think you lost it, sometimes we just can't remember what we're doing in this Country, You showed up so guess what you have been found!
Never too late. You probably think you lost ancestoral knowledge, but songs like this clean off the dust of everyday life from the knowledge that is still there. So, cowboy up and get ready for new adventures!
I loves this song they sang it for us when we were in the Sundance this year I go to a southern Cheyenne Sundance and it was about 4 in morning I danced all night and when I heard this song it brought back memories of my grandma and I remember this song was sung in Cheyenne
love this song sung many times in the sweatlodge miss you my native bros
Good Morning Family, I know that this should not be on here. I can't make it home (Rosebud) but this Cancer Warrior 🎗️ sure plays this when I smudge & Pray. Helps me to be Strong. Thank You ♥️
Dancing the sun with you once again beloved brother may you be blessed with everything good and beautifull thing in this life I am 73 years now but still follow the red road because of you and others who taught me how to be humble to pray and to dance the sun to praise honor our gtreat creator
The words of this song in English is : Great Sprirt have pity on me,... I want to live,... That is why I'm doing this . The rest are vocables.
Hopefully Everyone gets their say and go back to the OLAWAN and Shake off your Moccasins!
Have compassion for me unshimada
First time I heard this song. Was up in Standing Rock ND. Always and forever NO DAPL.
Thank you for this, the second I listen to this song, it hit me so hard I began to cry. Blessings and safe travels.
As a very sensitive person, I've always/and do struggle greatly with accepting humanity's 'normalised' behaviours (especially their food choices) accepting the natural order of conflict here on Earth, and accepting the being/beings/source who/that generated this incredibly difficult place.
And although I find it incredibly challenging to find any appreciation, let alone love, for this place or its purpose, I do feel moved by others' appreciation.
This song gave me another outlet for my build-up emotions.
Thank you.
Good luck Brothers and Sisters.
this is a good song I remember going to the Sundance with my dad n always going out to support him when it was piercing round
"My dad (Joe Eagle Elk) was a Lakota Medicine Man on the Rosebud Sioux Reservation. I named my 1st born son {Joey K. Eagle Elk} after my dad!!! My Grandfather is {George C. Eagle Elk} who served in WW I and WW II and my youngest son is {Guy W. Eagle Elk} !!! We (my and my younger brother George L. Eagle Elk) grew up in our ways and i strongly believe in my culture. I believe in our Lord Jesus and i do not put any other God's in front of Lord Jesus!! It is a surprise to me to see our songs, our sundances, our sweatlodges ON the internet!!!"
Wow,awesome! Haha yea I love the fact these songs are available,I've never been to a pow-wow or been to the Rez but this makes me feel like I'm there. Love and light,matt
Miigwetch! Viki eagle elk, one side moccasin is our lodge grandmother at the thunder loge in garden river. She is amazing. Much love
jeebus road is THE OPPRERSSORS religion. and to follow them as a Native person is continuing the genocide on the Lakota (and all the other tribes).
the OPPRESSORS relgion, xSTAINity is about DOMINION, DISCONNECT, SUBJUGATION, SUPPRESSION, FEAR, it is ALL about KEEPING the RED people down.
you following it is odious and vile. it is A LIE. and that black book and those black robes... for shame.
hecetu yelo.

This is also one of the most beautiful SUNDANCE songs. When I hear this song when I'm dancing and praying in the sundance arbor, it gives me strength and joy.....

I've danced at the mato tipila devil's towers it's a very powerful place to dance
These 2 Caucasian women attended a pow wow in Montana. They went over to a vendor and bought a couple of t-shirts with indigenous designs on them, to support the natives. They put on their new t-shirts and continued. Soon they overheard a native woman saying "Ha! Look at all these white people dressed up like Indians!" The Caucasion women looked around, and then one of them turned to her friend and said, "Ha! Look at all these Indians dressed up like whites!"
i am iyeška mostly wasičuŋ..a few genarations up a grandmother was full blood oglala, i must have her medicine with me i find all this music beautiful čaŋku luta wakaŋ mawaŋni lo...i practice these way to the best of my knowledge, i just wanted to say wopila for putting this music out there
I love you guys so much thanks for sharing this and for sharing your lives with us so deeply
love this brings hope .courage to go forward even I'm nothing & have nothing .full-blooded oglala. wounded knee SD
You are everything, and you have these songs. I offered up all i had to Spirit for these songs and the Red Road, and would do it every day until I go back to dust.
We come into this side of life with nothing. We leave with the same as we arrived...With a blink, we are awaken to a new life. One with many riches ..The riches of family...We will all be together.....Hoka Hey . Blessings
Creator. We belong to you. First Nation's Texas
Please Send My Children Mommas Love and tell them i miss them!
I sing my heart out to this song when it’s sung
I haven't heard this song in awhile. Brother's from fort Peck Rez in the sweat lodge.
Love the fact that all things connect...in a good sense..
Muy HERMOSOS NUESTROS CANTOS
Bless mother earth...
When I look at the situation of Humanity today. It reminds me of the Story Moby Dick
Because even in the face of their own demise people don't seem to be able to accept other people as being Human.
I have never had this problem. So I get blind sided by it every now and then.
In the story Moby Dick, everyone died be
because they couldn't see anything except the object of their desire.
Does it have to be that way for Humanity?
In my view I see that we are at a crossroads.
If the paradigm isn't changed all life on this planet will be lost!
Make no mistake! I'm neutral on this.
Why? Because it's one thing to be enslaved by money, but all it takes for evil to prevail is for good men to do nothing.
So either the good men need to stand up and lead the way back to sanity. Which means accepting everyone on this planet as
family, or, letting the insanity continue to the destruction of all life on this planet.
It is a choise we all must make.
In essence if we can't accept each other we are no longer welcome on this planet.
This comes not from me but the Universe itself. Please decide.
So Much Magnificence I Can't Stop Listening To It
A white man of Swedish, Norwegian, German ancestry. Even still, brought be chills and maybe tears.. but men don’t cry right? Lol. Pilamaya 🙏🏼

Seriously? Hmmm good to know info
I am sure this this is a piercing song, which it is a Wi Wan Wacipi song.
Rob Collier it's similare but it's not piercing song! Sundance song Yeap
Rob Collier this song it's not suppost to be in internet btw:s
Right
Can anyone explain what a piercing song is? Thanks
If you go to sun dance or rain dance you can see what is the piercing song ;)
Thought this was a piercing song for sundance
Backwoods Livin' it is
le olowa is inipi olawa sni wiwayakwacipi
it is.
but if you ask Mr Wasicu himself - michael ryan, who apparently is an expert with lakota and the sacred songs... he knows better.
