| Song of Kæʃməx Forest. |
| 2 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I emerge at the opening of the golden smoke hole. |
| 3 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I emerge at the seven golden smoke holes, |
| 4 |
|
|
|
|
| here and there are patches of snow. |
| 5 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I left with three bear strides. |
| 6 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I went for a long time or a short time, |
| 7 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I went up the side of a high, high mountain. |
| 8 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I gaze upon the seven circles of the revolving sky. |
| 9 |
|
|
|
|
|
| My high forest where I lay for three winters, |
| 10 |
|
|
|
|
|
| my Ɔwəs Forest catches my eye. |
| 11 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| My forest bearing tender boys and tender girls, |
| 12 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| my forest bringing forth tender boys and tender girls, |
| 13 |
|
|
|
|
|
| my Ɔwəs Forest catches my eye. |
| 14 |
|
|
|
|
| My right eye |
| 15 |
|
|
|
| is watering. |
| 16 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| What am I doing here, |
| 17 |
|
|
|
|
|
| has my last summer come? |
| 18 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I wipe it away with my right front paw. |
| 19 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I went for a long time or for a short time, |
| 20 |
|
|
|
|
| I come to a rushy moor, |
| 21 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I come to a beautiful bulrushy moor. |
| 22 |
|
|
| I look to the water, |
| 23 |
|
|
|
|
|
| seven cranes, a flock of cranes |
| 24 |
|
|
|
| are standing down at the water, |
| 25 |
|
|
|
|
|
| seven elk bulls, a herd of elk bulls |
| 26 |
|
|
|
| are pawing at the water. |
| 27 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I conceal myself behind sheltering grass, |
| 28 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I conceal myself behind a sheltering tree. |
| 29 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I spring forward at them with three bear jumps, |
| 30 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I let loose with the large voice of a bear attacking. |
| 31 |
|
|
|
|
| The herd of seven elk bulls |
| 32 |
|
|
| took flight, |
| 33 |
|
|
|
|
|
| the seven cranes, the flock of cranes |
| 34 |
|
|
| took wing. |
| 35 |
|
|
|
| I asked for an oracle, |
| 36 |
|
|
|
|
|
| If you know whether I am to continue living, |
| 37 |
|
|
|
|
|
| [seven cranes] [cranes with young] |
| 38 |
|
|
|
| [your crane head] |
| 39 |
|
|
|
| pull your crane head of seven cranes, of cranes with young to the south. |
| 40 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| If my last summer has come, |
| 41 |
|
|
|
|
|
| [seven cranes] [cranes with young] |
| 42 |
|
|
|
| [your crane head] |
| 43 |
|
|
|
| pull your crane head of seven cranes, of cranes with young to the north. |
| 44 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| [tender crane young born this summer] |
| 45 |
|
|
|
| [its crane head] |
| 46 |
|
|
|
| It pulls its crane head of tender crane young born this summer to the north. |
| 47 |
|
|
|
|
|
| You accursed thing! |
| 48 |
|
|
|
|
| If I were only able to get my hands on you, |
| 49 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| how I would tear you apart to bits of a cap, to bits of a mitten. |
| 50 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I find no pieces of grass to eat, |
| 51 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I find no twigs to eat. |
| 52 |
|
|
|
|
| I went for a long time, suddenly |
| 53 |
|
|
|
|
| my jay-aunt |
| 54 |
|
|
|
|
| [cone one span long] |
| 55 |
|
|
|
| comes flying with a cone one span long. |
| 56 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I clap my two bear front-paws together, |
| 57 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I let loose with the large voice of an attacking bear. |
| 58 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| She drops the cone one span long, |
| 59 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| she flies off further, she alights there, |
| 60 |
|
|
|
|
| she muttered something there, |
| 61 |
|
|
|
|
| she said something there. |
| 62 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| For a full week of the waxing moon |
| 63 |
|
|
|
|
|
| [this span-long cone] |
| 64 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I search for this span-long cone, I find it, |
| 65 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I stuff it into my ten-fanged gapped mouth, |
| 66 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I put on weight there a leaf thick. |
| 67 |
|
|
|
|
| My jay-aunt |
| 68 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| had not long since murmured good things. |
| 69 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I heard, she said: |
| 70 |
|
|
|
|
|
| [cone-growing forest] |
| 71 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Do you not hear, do you not see a cone-growing forest? |
| 72 |
|
|
|
|
|
| [cone-bearing cone-forest] |
| 73 |
|
|
|
| The Kæʃməx Forest is a cone-bearing cone-forest. |
| 74 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I, too, know the Kæʃməx Forest, |
| 75 |
|
|
|
|
| I took off. |
| 76 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I come to the edge of a dense pine forest, |
| 77 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| half cones, cone pieces lie about. |
| 78 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I gather the half cones, the cone pieces. |
| 79 |
|
|
|
|
| Going about like that, I look up, |
| 80 |
|
|
|
|
|
| cone-growing cone-pines, |
| 81 |
|
|
|
|
| cones a span long, |
| 82 |
|
|
|
| stand there. |
| 83 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Like my aunt, the she-ermine |
| 84 |
|
|
|
|
| I climb up, I clamber up, |
| 85 |
|
|
|
|
| [cone-growing cone-pine] |
| 86 |
|
|
|
| I strike down the cones of the cone-growing cone-pine. |
| 87 |
|
|
|
|
|
| My two neck-collared cub-sons |
| 88 |
|
|
|
| are squabbling. |
| 89 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| One says, this cone was thrown down to me, |
| 90 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| the other says, this cone was thrown down to me. |
| 91 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| The one says, if it was thrown down to you, |
| 92 |
|
|
|
| [man rich in sustenance] |
| 93 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| may I be struck down by the feathered arrow at the bottom of the quiver of the man rich in sustenance, |
| 94 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| and if it was thrown to me, |
| 95 |
|
|
|
| [man rich in sustenance] |
| 96 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| may you be struck down by the feathered arrow at the bottom of the quiver of the man rich in sustenance. |
| 97 |
|
|
| I climb down. |
| 98 |
|
|
|
|
| With my two ten-fingered paws |
| 99 |
|
|
|
| I cuff their ears. |
| 100 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Accursed ones! |
| 101 |
|
|
|
| [devil content on his own] |
| 102 |
|
|
|
| Why do you touch upon the devil not bothering us? |
| 103 |
|
|
|
| [devil content on his own] |
| 104 |
|
|
|
| Why do you stir up the devil not bothering us? |
| 105 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I look up: the cone-branch bearing cones |
| 106 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| is still there, it has remained. |
| 107 |
|
|
|
|
|
| [like my aunt the she-ermine] |
| 108 |
|
|
| I climb up like my aunt the she-ermine. |
| 109 |
|
|
|
|
|
| [cone-branch bearing cones] |
| 110 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I strike the cone-branch bearing cones, it doesn't snap. |
| 111 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Again I stirke it, it snaps, |
| 112 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| My two ten-fingered paws slip off, |
| 113 |
|
|
|
|
| [in the middle of my three-part breast] |
| 114 |
|
|
|
| then I am pierced in the middle of my three-part breast. |
| 115 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I am blown at there by the north wind of the north, |
| 116 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I am blown at there by the south wind of the south, |
| 117 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| [rich man's daughter] [from her father's attic] |
| 118 |
|
|
|
|
|
| [beautiful birch-bark vessel] [given from home as dowry] |
| 119 |
|
|
|
|
| I am blown at (like) the beautiful birch-bark vessel in which the rich man's daughter (keeps) the bridewealth brought from home, from her father's attic. |
| 120 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| [poor man's daughter] [from her mother's attic] |
| 121 |
|
|
|
|
|
| [treasure given from home as a dowry] [beautiful birch-bark vessel] |
| 122 |
|
|
|
|
| I am blown at (like) the beautiful birch-bark vessel in which the poor man's daughter (keeps) the treasure brought from home, from her mother's attic as dowry. |
| 123 |
|
|
|
|
| [youngest son of the old man] |
| 124 |
|
|
|
|
| [cone-bearing cone forest] |
| 125 |
|
|
|
| I turn the thoughts of the youngest son of the old man towards the cone-bearing cone forest. |
| 126 |
|
|
|
|
| The youngest son of the old man |
| 127 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| [in that cone-bearing cone forest] |
| 128 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| comes to me, finds me in that cone-bearing cone forest. |
| 129 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I, the beautiful, beautiful birch-bark vessel with bridewealth am dropped down there, |
| 130 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I, the beautiful, beautiful birch-bark vessel with food, am dropped down there. |
| 131 |
|
|
|
|
| The youngest son of the old man |
| 132 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| makes a willow framed knapsack. |
| 133 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I am bound to the willow-framed knapsack, |
| 134 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I am shouldered there by the handsome son of my lady. |
| 135 |
|
|
|
|
|
| [my lady's handsome son] |
| 136 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I was carried by my lady's handsome son for a long time or a short time, |
| 137 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Suddenly we arrive at the village edge where girls shriek. |
| 138 |
|
|
|
|
|
| The handsome son of my master |
| 139 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| emits a thin cry of one with little to eat. |
| 140 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Many young [n.n.]-handed women are there. |
| 141 |
|
|
|
|
| [male squirrel swimming in the water] |
| 142 |
|
|
|
| We got drenched like a male squirrel swimming in the water. |
| 143 |
|
|
|
|
|
| The handsome son of my lady |
| 144 |
|
|
|
|
| [to the beautiful house built by himself] |
| 145 |
|
|
|
| brings me to the beautiful house built by himself. |
| 146 |
|
|
|
|
|
| [braided-hair woman] [made] |
| 147 |
|
|
|
|
| [pitch wood] [sooty house] |
| 148 |
|
|
|
|
| They bring me into the house made sooty by the braided-hair woman lighting pitch wood fires. |
| 149 |
|
|
|
|
| [three days and nights] |
| 150 |
|
|
| [for the length] |
| 151 |
|
|
|
|
| [in a good nest of smooth cloth] |
| 152 |
|
|
|
| I sat for the length of three days and nights in a good nest of smooth cloth. |
| 153 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I looked through fine pieces of silver coin. |
| 154 |
|
|
|
|
| [abundant bowl of foal's fat] |
| 155 |
|
|
|
|
| [five days and nights] |
| 156 |
|
|
|
|
|
| For the length of five days and nights I was shown an abundant bowl of foal's fat. |
| 157 |
|
|
|
|
| Beautiful games with hands askew |
| 158 |
|
|
|
| were performed for me. |
| 159 |
|
|
|
|
| [beautiful games with feet askew] |
| 160 |
|
|
|
|
| I saw there beautiful games with feet askew. |
