Translation - we n' de ya ho
Freely translated: "a we n'" (i am),
"de" (of), "yauh" --the-- (great spirit), "ho" (it is so).
Written as: a we n' de yauh ho (i am of the great spirit, ho!).
This language stems from very ancient Cherokee
Every morning
the Cherokee would to go to an east bend of a river,
unless it was bitter cold, and get in the water to bathe.
This is the song they sang to call their communities
to come for the morning walk to the water and they would
sing this song while walking there.
