and in line 1, stanza IV., Bináye Aháni is changed to Bináye
Tsagáni. Nahostli'di in the last line of each stanza is rendered here
"restored," but the more exact meaning is, not that the original
people are called back to life, but that others are given in place
of them. This verb is used if a man steals a horse and gives another
horse as restitution for the one he stole.

280. A SONG OF NAYÉNEZGANI.
I.
Kat Nayénezgani nahaníya,
Now Slayer of the Alien Gods he arrives,
Pes dilyi'li behogánla ásde nahaníya,
Knives dark a house made of from he arrives,
Pes dilyi'li da`honíhe ásde nahaníya.

Nizáza dinigíni, síka not.
Your treasures you holy one, for my sake tóta.
II.
Kat To`badzistsíni nahaníya,

Nizáza dinigíni, síka not.

III.
Kat Léyaneyani nahaníya,
Now Reared under the Earth he arrives,
Pes althasaí behogánla ásde nahaníya,

Pes althasaí da`honíhe ásde nahaníya.

IV.
Kat Tsówenatlehi nahaníya,
Now Changing Grandchild he arrives,
Pes litsói behogánla ásde nahaníya,
Knives yellow a house made of from he arrives,
Pes litsói da`honíhe ásde nahaníya.
Knives yellow dangle high from he arrives.
Nizáza dinigíni, síka tóta.
Your treasures you holy one, for my sake not.
In endeavoring to explain the meaning of this song, the singer related
that Nayénezgani said to his mother, "You are the divine one, not
I." She replied, "No, you are the divine one." They were exchanging
compliments. Then he said, "Not for my sake, but for yours, were these
treasures (weapons, etc.) given by the Sun. They are yours." For the
meaning of bizá (his treasure), see note 246. Nizá or ni'za means
your treasure; the last syllable is here repeated perhaps as a poetic
plural. The houses of knives are said to be the different chambers in
the house of the Sun. Meaningless syllables are omitted in this text.
281. SONG OF THE SUN.
I.
Kat Nayénezgani sideyáïye,

(no meaning.)
Alíl or alíli means a show, dance, or other single exhibition of the
rites (see fig. 30). It also means a wand or other sacred implement
used in the rites. It is thought that the colored hoops for raising
a storm, described in par. 355, are the alíli referred to in this song.
282. SONG OF THE SUN.
I.
Siní` eé deyá aá, deyá aá,
My mind approaches, approaches,
Tsínhanoai eé deyá aá,
The Sun God approaches,
Ni`ninéla` eé deyá aá,
Border of the Earth approaches,
Estsánatlesi bigáni yúnidze deyá aá,
Estsánatlehi her house toward the hearth approaches,
Sána nagái eé deyá aá,
In old age walking approaches,
Biké hozóni eé deyá aá.
His trail beautiful approaches.
Siní` eé deyá aá, deyá aá.
My mind approaches, approaches.
II.
Siní` eé deyá aá, deyá aá,
My mind approaches, approaches,
Kléhanoai eé deyá aá,
The Moon God approaches,
Ni`ninéla` eé deyá aá,
Border of the Earth approaches,
Yolkaí Estsán bigáni yúnidze deyá aá,
Yolkaí Estsán her house toward the hearth approaches,
Sána nagái eé deyá aá,
In old age walking approaches,
Biké hozóni eé deyá aá.
His trail beautiful approaches.
Siní` eé deyá aá deyá aá.
My mind approaches, approaches.
Yúni, here translated hearth, is a certain part of the floor of the
Navaho lodge. Yúnidze means in the direction of the yúni.
The expressions Sána nagái and Biké hozóni appear in many songs
and prayers, and are always thus united. Their literal translation
is as given above; but they are equivalent to saying, "Long life and
happiness;" as part of a prayer, they are a supplication for a long
and happy life. Hozóni means, primarily, terrestrially beautiful;
but it means also happy, happily, or, in a certain sense, good.
Estsánatlehi is often called, in song, Estsánatlesi, and Tsóhanoai
is often called (apparently with greater propriety) Tsínhanoai. Siní`
= Si'ni.
The syllables not translated are meaningless.
283. SIGNIFICANT WORDS OF SONGS OF THE LOG, FIRST SET.

Great changes are made in some of the words in this song for prosodic
reasons. Tsi'natan, tsi'nataa, and tsi'nat (1st lines) are all from
tsil (plant) and natán (corn), Bidági (2d lines) is from bidí (its
ear), iá` (it sticks up), and gi (in). Alkaí (line 1, stanza I.) =
lakaí. Altsói (line 1, stanza III.) = litsói.
