The Ghost-dance religion and the Sioux outbreak of 1890

by James Mooney

Da′mânhä′go, Da′mânhä′go.

Ka′ante damânhä′go,

Ka′ante damânhä′go.

Translation

My father has much pity for us,

My father has much pity for us.

I hold out my hands toward him and cry,

I hold out my hands toward him and cry.

In my poverty I hold out my hands toward him and cry,

In my poverty I hold out my hands toward him and cry.
