#1201 - KILLER WHALE TOTEM
The great sea,
Has sent me adrift,
It moves me as the weed in a great river,
Earth and the great weather move me,
Have carried me away,
And move my inward parts with joy.
- Uvavnuk Eskimo


#1203 - EAGLE TOTEM
You, whose day it is, make it beautiful.
Get out your rainbow colors,
So it will be beautiful.
 Song to bring Fair weather,
- Nootka



#1204 - RAVEN TOTEM
Tidings, Tidings, Tidings.
The Raven brings tidings.
Hark Ye! The Raven journeys to all places
The Raven sees all things. The Raven smells all things. He knows all that comes to pass.
Listen now and take heed of the message he brings to us all.
- Northwest Coast Song

#1206 - BEAR CLAN
I have taken the woman of beauty
for my wife;
I have taken her from her friends.
I hope her kinsman will not come
and take her away from me.
I will be kind to her.
Berries, berries I will give her from
the hill and roots from the ground.
I will do everything to please her.
For her I made this song
and for her I sing it.
The Bear's Song - Haida


#1208 - HALIBUT LEGEND
Ocean Spirit, calm the waves for me.
Get close to me, my power my heart is tired.
Make the sea like milk for me. Yeho yehólo.
- Song for Smooth Waters,
Haida


#1209 - EAGLE/RAVEN LOVEBIRDS
For a longtime
I have been walking
and seeing nothing,
Now I find this song
and it cheers me.
- Nitinat Song
