Lávvu

I know this

A lávvu is built this way

From three strong poles

A sister, a brother

And so [a] best friend ((are?) all friends)

We walk over lands

And no matter what happens

It will stand safe till the winds change

(Joik)

Without you

I fall

A fallen hero wins

No battles

Without each other

We see no day

We erect a lávvu

On the same team

(joik)

Standing Rock

Sarayaku

Sápmi, Álta, Gállok

Ellos Deatnu

(joik)
