RABBIT DANCE LOVE SONG
Isna Wastekicilapi Mastin Olowan
Say, where did you come from?
Oh, I come from that way to dance here.
Give me your hand, because I am single.
Maybe I will see you later.
(Original Lakota lyrics)
Tokiyatan
yahi so.
Leciyatanhan waci wahiye.
Nape au
we.
Tansna
waun we.
Toksa ake
wacinyankin kte.
Notes:
"When Rabbit Dances were in full swing around here,
you would take your sweetheart to the hall
and dance all night long. The Rabbit Dance Love Song
is a real old one, written in the 1920's."
