Chi′chita′nĕ.
Translation
My partner, my partner,
Let us go out gambling,
Let us go out gambling,
At chi′chita′nĕ, at chi′chita′nĕ.
Chi′chita′nĕ is a favorite game of contest with the boys, in which the player, while holding in his hands a bow and an arrow ready to shoot, keeps in the hand which grasps the string a small wisp of grass bound with sinew. He lets this drop and tries to shoot it with the arrow before it touches the ground. The wisp is about the size of a man’s finger.
The song came from the north, and was suggested by a trance vision in which the dreamer saw his former boy friends playing this game in the spirit world.
