Translation
My Grandfather is from Hartley Bay
I am of Tsimshian Blood
(Repeated)
I am of Tsimshian blood
The Tsimshian live without fear; this is what our law tells us
The Chief's heart is sad, yet he is without fear
The Raven's heart is sad, yet it is without fear
The Raven (is without fear)
The Wolf (is without fear)
The Raven (is without fear)
The Eagle (is without fear)
The Chief's heart is sad, yet he is without fear
The Raven's heart is sad, yet it is without fear
This is what our law teaches us
This is what our ancestors teach us
