Sundancer, attach your spirit to the light
Dance for the people...sundancer
Sundancer, like an eagle you take flight
Your heart is strong...you sing your song
Drums like Thunder
As you dance across the sky
We stand in wonder
At this gift you give
Sundancer, attach your spirit to this tree of life
Prayer for peace...pray for peace
Sundancer, pray for the little ones we bring into this world today
May they find their way
Drums like Thunder
As you dance across the sky
We stand in wonder
At this gift you give...sundancer
Lakota:
Wankatakiya etunwan was'agya waciyo!
(Looking upward, dance with strength!)
Tunkasila iyuskinyan cekiyayo!
(Joyfully, pray to Tunkasila!)
Mitakuwe ob yanin kte lo!
(You and my relations will live!)
Sundancer, attach your spirit to the sun
Dance for your people now
Dance for our people too
Sundancer, may all hearts become as one as we dance with you
As we dance with you
May we dance with you
Dance with you
