This song is inspired with the Nahuatl Language of the Mexicatl people. When studying with their ways and their way of praying this song came through to give thanks and gratitude to the elements of creation, and the different names for the forces of creation.
There are also words that are from the Wixarika tribe of Mexico.
This song is giving thanks to the deer spirit, that guides and protects these people and many people of these sacred lands, giving its blessing and guidance through out the world.

Translation Nahuatl
*(These are the translations given to me by my Mexicatl elders. With the respect and honouring of knowing that the Nahuatl language interpretes differently to various tribes and that the meaning of every expression cannot be fully translated by the English language)
Tloque Nahuaque - Energy near and far (another name for creator)
Ipalnemohuani - Giver of life
Tlazocamati - I thank you, I love you, I give to you what the Earth gives to you which all is love
Ometeotl - the sacred Duality two spirit of the universe (ome = two, teot= spirit, 'another name for creator')
