we sing with our light;
we are the birds of fire,
we fly over the sky.
our light is a voice;
we make a road for the spirit to pass over
{algonquian indian}
outò, ba mwen son ou,e,
outò, ba mwen son ou,e,

outò, give me your sound,
outò, give me your sound,
drummer, give me your sound,
the sun rises.
