WOMEN YOU MUST LEARN TO BE WARRIORS
Women, you must learn to be warriors
Now when times are dark and our men are afraid to tell us what is in their hearts.
There is so much trouble in our land;
that it is up to you to decide which direction the wind must blow.
Women, you are our tree of life;
just as you were a long time ago when a man said,"carry my seed."
If you go forth from this darkness, telling our story of courage and survival, then our tree will grow strong with your words.
Women, do not worry about tomorrow.
Even when daylight is long in coming, the sun remembers its place in the sky.
Take the blue shawl of knowledge and wrap it around your daughters, telling them that;
Woman, you must not be afraid to be warriors.
