Aho Great Spirit, Great Mystery,
Honoring today the teachers great and small, from a tiny insect to the highest mountain,
Celebrating all the teachings old and New, that come from above, below and within,
From you and me, from our mother’s and father’s, from our best friends as well as our adversaries,
There are teachers everywhere!
Thank you for this great school called ‘life’, for teaching us what we are here to learn, through Joy and pain, laughter and sorrow, we learn with grace how to be humble,
Some will learn, some will not, who are we to judge, only to walk in the truth of our own example!
Aho Mitakuye Oyasin
