|
| The Song of the Lowering of the Bear by his Grandfather, the Heavenly God |
| 2 |
|
|
| My grandfather, the heavenly god |
| 3 |
|
|
| [behind a seven-layered iron door] |
| 4 |
|
|
|
| placed me behind a seven-layered iron door. |
| 5 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I sat for a short time, I sat for a long time |
| 6 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I went to the door, I went to the back. |
| 7 |
|
|
|
|
|
| When I, an angry man, a furious man |
| 8 |
|
|
|
|
| [with a thirty-fingered hand of fingers] |
| 9 |
|
|
|
| [with a twenty-fingered hand of fingers] |
| 10 |
|
|
|
|
| hit the iron door then with a thirty-fingered hand of fingers, with a twenty-fingered hand of fingers, |
| 11 |
|
|
|
|
|
| the iron door of my grandfather, the heavenly god, flies to bits. |
| 12 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Then I run to the other end of the town |
| 13 |
|
|
|
|
| I run to the other end of the village. |
| 14 |
| Suddenly |
| 15 |
|
|
| my right front paw |
| 16 |
|
|
| sank down. |
| 17 |
|
|
|
| I look down: |
| 18 |
|
|
|
|
|
| a land buzzing like silk cloth is to be seen, |
| 19 |
|
|
|
|
|
| a land buzzing like a silky cloth is to be seen. |
| 20 |
|
|
|
|
| I think: If only my grandfather, the heavenly god, |
| 21 |
|
|
|
|
| [to the land buzzing like silk cloth] |
| 22 |
|
|
|
| [to the land buzzing like silky cloth] |
| 23 |
|
|
|
| would lower me down to the land buzzing like silk cloth, to the land buzzing like silky cloth. |
| 24 |
|
|
|
| Then I run back. |
| 25 |
|
|
|
|
| My grandfather, the heavenly god is walking about. |
| 26 |
|
|
|
|
|
| [my iron door, my stone door] |
| 27 |
|
|
|
|
| Who broke my iron door, my stone door? |
| 28 |
|
|
| [than me] |
| 29 |
|
|
|
|
|
| What sort of man has appeared stronger than me? |
| 30 |
|
|
|
|
| Grandfather, heavenly god, |
| 31 |
|
|
|
|
| I broke your iron door, your stone door |
| 32 |
|
|
|
| [I broke]. |
| 33 |
|
|
|
| Grandfather, heavenly god, |
| 34 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I ran to the other end of the town, |
| 35 |
|
|
|
|
| I ran to the other end of the village. |
| 36 |
|
|
| My right front paw |
| 37 |
|
|
| sank down. |
| 38 |
|
|
|
| I look down: |
| 39 |
|
|
|
|
|
| a land buzzing like silk cloth is to be seen, |
| 40 |
|
|
|
|
|
| a land buzzing like a silky cloth is to be seen. |
| 41 |
|
|
|
| Grandfather, heavenly god, |
| 42 |
|
|
|
|
| if you were only to lower me down! |
| 43 |
|
|
|
|
| My grandfather, the heavenly god, says: |
| 44 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Have you [in my dwelling land] |
| 45 |
|
|
|
| grown tired of living your days, |
| 46 |
|
|
|
| of living your life in my dwelling land? |
| 47 |
|
|
|
|
|
| If I were to lower you down, |
| 48 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| you might not spare a single young girl |
| 49 |
|
|
|
|
|
| you might not spare a single young boy. |
| 50 |
|
|
|
|
| I retort: |
| 51 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| What would attract me to a young girl, |
| 52 |
|
|
|
|
| what would attract me to a young boy? |
| 53 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I might lower you down, |
| 54 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| (but if) horses go about, (if) cows go about, don't touch them! |
| 55 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Perhaps a human goes about, don't touch him! |
| 56 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Perhaps a woman goes about, don't touch her! |
| 57 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Live in accordance with what I have said! |
| 58 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| (If) you do not live in accordance with the words I have said, |
| 59 |
|
|
|
|
| you will find no evening food, |
| 60 |
|
|
|
|
| you will find no morning food. |
| 61 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| (If) you start living in accordance with the words I have said, |
| 62 |
|
|
|
|
|
| you will acquire a layer of fat thicker than a quarter cubit, |
| 63 |
|
|
|
|
|
| you will acquire a layer of fat thicker than a span. |
| 64 |
|
|
|
|
|
| My grandfather, the heavenly god, braids a rope. |
| 65 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| He braids a long time, or he braids a short time, |
| 66 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| he sits the night, he sits the day. |
| 67 |
|
|
|
|
| At some point his rope is ready. |
| 68 |
|
|
|
|
| My grandfather, the heavenly god says, |
| 69 |
|
|
|
| come! |
| 70 |
|
|
|
| I came. |
| 71 |
|
|
|
| I was tied to the end of the rope. |
| 72 |
|
|
|
|
| My grandfather, the heavenly god says, |
| 73 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I will say one more word to you: |
| 74 |
|
|
|
|
| Go about in the summer, |
| 75 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| in winter lie in deep sleep in a den. |
| 76 |
|
|
|
|
| I am lowered down by my grandfather, the heavenly god. |
| 77 |
|
|
|
|
| I am lowered down for a short time |
| 78 |
|
|
|
|
| or I am lowered down for a long time. |
| 79 |
|
|
|
| At some point I look, |
| 80 |
|
|
|
|
| I'm being lowered down onto a hill in a forest so thick a mouse nose couldn't penetrate it |
| 81 |
|
|
| [I'm being lowered]. |
| 82 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Although I climb back like a squirrel, |
| 83 |
|
|
|
|
|
| although I climb back like a sable, |
| 84 |
|
|
|
|
| I am lowered down by my grandfather, the heavenly god. |
| 85 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Such an anger overcame me |
| 86 |
|
|
|
|
|
| such a fierceness overcame me. |
| 87 |
|
|
| When I listen to myself |
| 88 |
|
|
|
|
|
| my game-biting, doom-bringing heart |
| 89 |
|
|
|
|
| my elk-biting, doom-bringing heart |
| 90 |
|
|
|
|
|
| can be felt like the piercing of a fir-wood pole, |
| 91 |
|
|
|
|
|
| can be felt like the piercing of a larch-wood pole. |
| 92 |
|
|
|
| I cry out upwards: |
| 93 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Grandfather, heavenly god, put up with it! |
| 94 |
|
|
|
| [with you] |
| 95 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I won't spare you any girl running forwards, |
| 96 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I won't spare you any boy running forwards. |
| 97 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I won't spare you any horse running forwards, |
| 98 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I won't spare you any cow going forwards. |
| 99 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Then I went with my angry heart. |
| 100 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| (If) I find a horse, I take it by the head, |
| 101 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| (if) I find a cow, I take it by the head, |
| 102 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| (if) I find a human, I take it by the head. |
| 103 |
| Suddenly |
| 104 |
|
|
|
|
| when I collect myself |
| 105 |
|
|
| my grandfather, the heavenly god |
| 106 |
|
|
|
| has enclosed me with an iron net, |
| 107 |
|
|
|
|
| I find no evening food, |
| 108 |
|
|
|
|
| I find no morning food. |
| 109 |
|
|
|
| Then I go about. |
| 110 |
|
|
|
|
|
| A pike is sitting in the water. |
| 111 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Pike, give me a presage! |
| 112 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Let loose a reliable god presage, |
| 113 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| let loose a reliable spirit presage. |
| 114 |
|
|
|
|
| The pike started to soothsay. |
| 115 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I look: the waves of the water begin to surge, |
| 116 |
|
|
|
|
| the waves of the wind begin to surge. |
| 117 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Although I grasp at it |
| 118 |
|
|
|
|
|
| [from my thirty-fingered hand of fingers] |
| 119 |
|
|
|
|
| [from my twenty-fingered hand of fingers] |
| 120 |
|
|
| it sprang away from my thirty-fingered hand of fingers, from my twenty-fingered hand of fingers. |
| 121 |
|
|
|
|
| When springing away, the pike says: |
| 122 |
|
|
|
|
| Cunt boy! |
| 123 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| You will waste away without food the rest of your life, |
| 124 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| you did not live in accordance with the words spoken by your grandfather, the heavenly god. |
| 125 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I go off with my angry heart of an angry man. |
| 126 |
|
|
|
| I went about for a short time |
| 127 |
|
|
|
|
| or I went about for a long time, |
| 128 |
|
|
|
|
| suddenly a hare runs along. |
| 129 |
|
|
|
|
|
| With my snatching game-snatch mouth |
| 130 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| with my snatching elk-snatch mouth I say: |
| 131 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Hare, sit down. |
| 132 |
|
|
|
|
|
| When the hare sat down, it said: |
| 133 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Thirty-fingered man of fingers, |
| 134 |
|
|
|
|
| twenty-fingered man of fingers, |
| 135 |
|
|
|
|
| what do you need? |
| 136 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I need nothing. |
| 137 |
|
|
|
|
| And why |
| 138 |
|
|
|
| did you have me sit down? |
| 139 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| You, hare, soothsay! |
| 140 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Let loose a reliable god presage, |
| 141 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| let loose a reliable spirit presage. |
| 142 |
|
|
|
|
| The hare sat down to soothsay. |
| 143 |
|
|
|
| Suddenly a rooted tree |
| 144 |
|
|
|
|
| moved with its roots, |
| 145 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| a branchy tree moved with its branches. |
| 146 |
|
|
|
| When I strike at it |
| 147 |
|
|
|
|
| it sprang away from my thirty-fingered hand with fingers |
| 148 |
|
|
| [it sprang away], |
| 149 |
|
|
|
|
| it sprang away from my twenty-fingered hand with fingers |
| 150 |
|
|
| [it sprang away]. |
| 151 |
|
|
|
|
| The hare sprang away and said: |
| 152 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Cunt boy! |
| 153 |
|
|
|
| [spoken by your grandfather, the heavenly god] |
| 154 |
|
|
|
|
|
| You did not live in accordance with the words spoken by your grandfather, the heavenly god, |
| 155 |
|
|
| [your entire life] |
| 156 |
|
|
|
| You will waste away without food the rest of your life. |
| 157 |
|
|
|
|
| Cunt boy! |
| 158 |
|
|
|
| You frighten me. |
| 159 |
|
|
|
|
|
| (When) you are found by a navel-cut human, |
| 160 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| you will be killed with a single axe, with a single knife, |
| 161 |
|
|
|
|
|
| your broth will be ash-water, cinder-water. |
| 162 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| (If) I am pierced by a seven-pronged arrow with prongs, |
| 163 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I will run thirty meadows and river-stretches. |
| 164 |
|
|
|
| (If) I get killed, |
| 165 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| my smell will spread over three huts. |
| 166 |
|
|
| I stood for a time, |
| 167 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I went on as an angry man, a furious man. |
| 168 |
|
|
|
|
| I went about for a short time, |
| 169 |
|
|
|
|
| or I went about for a long time, |
| 170 |
|
|
|
| when I listen to myself, |
| 171 |
|
|
|
| [spoken by my grandfather, the heavenly god] |
| 172 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I have not lived in accordance with the words spoken by my grandfather, the heavenly god. |
| 173 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I can feel my front paw becoming heavy, |
| 174 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I can feel my hind paw becoming heavy. |
| 175 |
|
|
|
| Again I go about for a short time |
| 176 |
|
|
|
|
| or I go about for a long time. |
| 177 |
|
|
|
| Suddenly I look: |
| 178 |
|
|
|
| a striped squirrel is running along. |
| 179 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Striped squirrel, striped squirrel, |
| 180 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| let loose a reliable god presage, |
| 181 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| let loose a reliable spirit presage. |
| 182 |
|
|
|
|
| My hind paw became heavy, |
| 183 |
|
|
|
|
| my front paw became heavy. |
| 184 |
|
|
|
| Striped squirrel, striped squirrel, |
| 185 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| let loose a reliable god presage, |
| 186 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| let loose a reliable spirit presage. |
| 187 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| A rooted tree moved with its roots, |
| 188 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| a branched tree moved with its branches. |
| 189 |
|
|
|
|
|
| When I grasp at it then, |
| 190 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| it slipped out of my twenty-fingered hand of fingers, |
| 191 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| it slipped out of my thirty-fingered hand of fingers. |
| 192 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Cunt boy! |
| 193 |
|
|
|
|
| You have started to waste away and dwindle away, |
| 194 |
|
|
|
|
| still you frighten me. |
| 195 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| You have not lived in accordance with what your grandfather, the heavenly god said. |
| 196 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Prick up your two ears that pass by all fir trees, |
| 197 |
|
|
|
|
| your two ears that pass by all larch trees, |
| 198 |
|
|
|
|
| [prick up] and listen! |
| 199 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| The words of your grandfather, the heavenly god, could be heard from up above, |
| 200 |
|
|
|
|
| I will tell it to you. |
| 201 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| You go on, you'll come to a cone forest. |
| 202 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Your jay aunt, the old woman, will be eating a cone in the top of a pine. |
| 203 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| You ask her, she throws down half a cone. |
| 204 |
|
|
|
|
| Then you say: |
| 205 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| May your flesh be soot, be coal! |
| 206 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I went about for a short time or I went about for a long time. |
| 207 |
|
|
|
| Suddenly I look, |
| 208 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I really did come to a cone forest. |
| 209 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| My jay aunt, the old woman, is really eating a cone. |
| 210 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Jay aunt, old woman, |
| 211 |
|
|
|
|
| my heart hungers. |
| 212 |
|
|
| [you] [me] |
| 213 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Throw me a cone longer than a quarter cubit, |
| 214 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| throw me a cone, longer than a span. |
| 215 |
|
|
|
|
|
| She threw me down a piece of cone. |
| 216 |
|
|
|
|
| I bewitch her: |
| 217 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Eat your cones filling the forest the rest of your life. |
| 218 |
|
|
|
|
|
| May your flesh be coal! |
| 219 |
|
|
|
|
|
| May your flesh be soot! |
| 220 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I went for a short time or I went for a long time. |
| 221 |
|
|
|
| Suddenly I look: |
| 222 |
|
|
|
| A herd of cattle is going about. |
| 223 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I went through the cattle herd. |
| 224 |
|
|
|
| I went about for a short time, |
| 225 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| or I went about for a long time, I look: |
| 226 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| a woman is walking, a man is walking. |
| 227 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I went by the woman, |
| 228 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I went by the man. |
| 229 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Going on, I came to a large marsh extending to (dry) land, |
| 230 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I came to a large marsh extending to the water. |
| 231 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
| I look, on the ground of the marsh a big reindeer bull with hairy antlers is lying. |
| 232 |
|
|
|
| I started to stalk it. |
| 233 |
|
|
|
|
| One of my bones made a snap. |
| 234 |
|
|
|
|
| One of my bones made a snap. |
| 235 |
|
|
|
| In some way or other I caught it. |
| 236 |
|
|
|
| [my thirty-fingered hand of fingers] |
| 237 |
|
|
|
|
| I can feel my thirty-fingered hand of fingers losing strength, |
| 238 |
|
|
|
| [my twenty-fingered hand of fingers] |
| 239 |
|
|
|
|
| I can feel my twenty-fingered hand of fingers losing strength. |
| 240 |
|
|
|
| I had thought, |
| 241 |
|
|
| [my grandfather, the heavenly god] |
| 242 |
|
|
|
|
| I am more famous then my grandfather, the heavenly god, |
| 243 |
|
|
|
|
| I am more renowned. |
| 244 |
|
|
|
|
| [my grandfather, the heavenly god] |
| 245 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Although I wanted to surpass my grandfather, the heavenly god, in strength, |
| 246 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| my grandfather, the heavenly god, seems to be stronger, |
| 247 |
|
|
|
|
| seems to be more famous. |
| 248 |
|
|
|
|
| I am being dried to dry wood, |
| 249 |
|
|
|
|
| I am being dried to dry grass. |
| 250 |
|
|
|
|
| I truly was [by my grandfather, the heavenly god] |
| 251 |
|
|
|
| entrapped in an iron net by my grandfather, the heavenly god. |
| 252 |
|
|
|
|
| [a three-year old reindeer calf] |
| 253 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| My strength did not suffice to break the neck of a three-year old reindeer calf. |
| 254 |
|
|
|
|
|
| With my old doom-bringing, game-biting heart |
| 255 |
|
|
|
| I sliced through its neck. |
| 256 |
|
|
|
|
| My front legs grew strong, |
| 257 |
|
|
|
|
| my hind legs grew strong. |
| 258 |
|
|
|
|
| Then I go about again, |
| 259 |
|
|
|
|
| I wander through all the land of fir trees, |
| 260 |
|
|
|
|
| I wander through all the land of larch trees. |
| 261 |
|
|
|
|
|
| Suddenly I came to a well-known river, |
| 262 |
|
|
|
|
| I came to a renowned river. |
| 263 |
|
|
|
| Suddenly, when I look, |
| 264 |
|
|
|
| a large elkbull with antlers like boards |
| 265 |
|
|
|
| is rolling in the water. |
| 266 |
|
|
|
| [my thirty-fingered hand of fingers] |
| 267 |
|
|
|
|
| When I grasp at it with my thirty-fingered hand of fingers, |
| 268 |
|
|
|
| [my twenty-fingered hand of fingers] |
| 269 |
|
|
|
|
| When I grasp at it with my twenty-fingered hand of fingers, |
| 270 |
|
|
|
| my thirty-fingered hand of fingers |
| 271 |
|
|
|
|
| had at some time become strong, |
| 272 |
|
|
|
| my twenty-fingered hand of fingers |
| 273 |
|
|
|
|
| had at some time become strong. |
| 274 |
|
|
|
|
| The well-known river has high banks, |
| 275 |
|
|
|
|
| the renowned river has high banks. |
| 276 |
|
|
|
| [at the head of the high banks of the well-known river] |
| 277 |
|
|
|
| I threw it at the head of the high banks of the well-known river, |
| 278 |
|
|
|
| [at the head of the hills of the renowned river] |
| 279 |
|
|
|
| I threw it at the head of the hills of the renowned river. |
| 280 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I put on a layer of fat with the width of a palm, |
| 281 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I put on a fat layer with the width of a palm. |
| 282 |
|
|
|
|
| Then I go about again, |
| 283 |
|
|
|
|
| I wander along the entire well-known river, |
| 284 |
|
|
|
|
| I wander along the entire renowned river. |
| 285 |
|
|
|
|
|
| While wandering along the entire well-known river, |
| 286 |
|
|
|
|
| while wandering along the entire renowned river |
| 287 |
|
|
|
| Suddenly I look, |
| 288 |
|
|
|
|
|
| at the turning of the headland of the well-known river, |
| 289 |
|
|
|
|
| at the turning of the headland of the renowned river |
| 290 |
|
|
|
|
|
| the big elkbull is sitting. |
| 291 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I snatched it with a thirty-fingered hand of fingers, |
| 292 |
|
|
|
|
|
| I snatched it with a twenty-fingered hand of fingers, |
| 293 |
|
|
| I dragged it to the shore. |
| 294 |
|
|
|
| When I listen, my grandfather, the heavenly god |
| 295 |
|
|
|
|
| [above a wandering cloud] |
| 296 |
|
|
|
| [above a running cloud] |
| 297 |
|
|
|
| can be heard crying out above a wandering cloud, above a running cloud. |
| 298 |
|
|
|
| I listen. |
| 299 |
|
|
| [one of my ears] |
| 300 |
|
|
|
|
| I prick up one of my ears in one direction, |
| 301 |
|
|
| [my other ear] |
| 302 |
|
|
|
|
| I prick up my other ear in the other direction. |
| 303 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| My grandfather, the heavenly god, says to me: |
| 304 |
|
|
|
|
| [the man with intestines] |
| 305 |
|
|
|
|
| You took the intestined man by his head, |
| 306 |
|
|
|
| [the man-son with a cut navel] |
| 307 |
|
|
|
|
| you took the man-son with a cut navel by his head. |
| 308 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| Now the daughter of the [n.n.] man similar to you |
| 309 |
|
|
|
|
| [the daughter] sits without food, |
| 310 |
|
|
|
|
| his son sits without food. |
| 311 |
|
|
|
| The people of his town, |
| 312 |
|
|
| the people of his village |
| 313 |
|
|
|
|
| give him no bite of food, |
| 314 |
|
|
|
|
| give him no drop to drink. |
| 315 |
|
|
|
|
|
|
| For the continuation of your story, |
| 316 |
|
|
|
|
|
| for the continuation of your song |
| 317 |
|
|
|
|
| sit on your large elkbull |
| 318 |
|
|
|
| [sit on]. |
| 319 |
|
|
|
|
|
| You will sit a short or a long time, |
| 320 |
|
|
|
|
| a boat with a stem will appear, |
| 321 |
|
|
|
|
| a boat with a stern will appear. |
| 322 |
|
|
|
|
|
| You will be struck with an eagle-winged feathered arrow. |
| 323 |
|
|
|
|
| Let them extinguish you, |
| 324 |
|
|
|
|
| let them kill you! |
