The sun, the rays of the sun, he is holding up his hand [painted] with them;
The sun has come down,
It has come upon you,
It has come to you,
It has gone into you.
Red clay, its power is good,
Long life!
He will paint you red with it,
He will paint you white with it,
Long life! Its power is good.
The sun, its power is good,
Long life!
Red clay, its power is good,
White clay, its power is good,
He will paint you red with it.
White clay, its power is good,
He will paint you white with it.
