As I Walk With Beauty
As I walk, as I walk
The Universe is walking with me.
In beauty it walks before me.
In beauty it walks behind me.
In beauty it walks below me.
In beauty it walks above me.
Beauty is on every side.
As I walk, I walk with beauty.
~~ Traditional Navajo Prayer ~~

Cherokee Prayer Blessing
May the Warm Winds of Heaven
Blow softly on your house.
May the Great Spirit
Bless all who enter there.
May your Mocassins
Make happy tracks
in many snows,
and may the Rainbow
Always touch your shoulder.



Final Vision
Life is the flash
of a firefly in the night.
It is the breath of the buffalo
in the winter.
It is the little shadow
which runs across the grass
and loses itself in the sunset.
~~ Crowfoot ~~
Blackfoot Tribe

O Great Spirit
O Great Spirit, whose voice
I hear in the winds,
and whose breath
gives life to the world, hear me!
I am small and weak.

I need your strength and wisdom.
Let me walk in beauty,
and make my eyes ever behold
the red and purple sunset.

Make my hands respect
the tings you have made
and my ears sharp
to hear your voice.

Make me wise,
so that I may understand
the things you have
taught my people.

Let me hear the lessons
you have hidden
in every leaf and rock.

I seek strength,
not to be greater than my brother,
but to fight my greatest enemy,
myself.

Make me always ready
to come to you
with clean hands
and straight eyes.

And when this life fades
as the fading sunset,
may my spirit come to you
without shame.
~~ Unknown ~~



When you arise in the morning,
give thanks for the morning light,
for your life and strength,
give thanks for your food
and the joy of living.
If you see no reason
for giving thanks,
the fault lies in yourself.
~~ Tecumseh ~~

Walk on a rainbow trail;
Walk on a trail of song,
and all about you
will be beauty.
There is a way out
of every dark mist,
over a rainbow trail.
~~ Navajo Song ~~



Indian Farewell
Until we meet again,
May the Great Spirit
Make sunrise in your heart.
And may your
Moccasins make tracks
In many snows yet to come.
~~ Unknown ~~
