Pieseň Samojedov na privolávanie duchov

Come, come,
Spirits of magic,
If ye come not,
I shall go to you.
Awake, awake,
Spirits of magic,
I am come to you,
Arise from sleep.

The Rising of the Buffalo Bull Men

I rise, I rise,
I, whose tread makes the earth to rumble.
I rise, I rise,
I, in whose thighs there is strength.
I rise, I rise,
I, who whips his back with his tail when in rage.
I rise, I rise,
I, in whose humped shoulder there is power.
I rise, I rise,
I, who shakes his mane when angered.
I rise, I rise,
I, whose horns are sharp and curved.

Things a Shaman Sees

Everything that is
is alive
on a steep river bank there's a voice that speaks
I've seen the master of that voice he bowed to me
I spoke with him
he answers all my questions
everything that is
is alive
Little gray bird
little blue breast
sings in a hollow bough
she cells her spirits dances
sings her shaman songs
woodpecker on a tree
that's his drum
he's got a drumming nose
and the tree shakes
cries out like a drum
when the axe bites its side
all these things answer
my call
everything that is
is alive
the lantern walks around
the walls of this house have tongues
even this bowl has its own true home
the hides asleep in their bags
were up talking all night
antlers on the graves
rise end circle the mounds
while the dead themselves get up
and go visit the living ones

Tsimshianská šamanská léčitelská píseň

Far away
huge bee-hives
I walk around
huge bee-hives
Spirit Bee
sees me
flies up high
shoots me
I'm bleeding all over
many arrows all over
I'm going to die
I'm going to die
far away
huge bee-hives
I walk around
huge bee-hives
Grandmother
sees me
her small boy
she heals me
she makes me grow
feeds me
small boy
inside
far away
huge bee-hives
I walk around
huge bee-hives

Zkušenost šamana ze severozápadního pobřeží USA v době šamanské extrakce.

Ja kroužím vůkol

Ja kroužím vůkol, ja kroužím vůkol,
vůkol hranic světů
Na havraních křídlech já letím vůkol hranic světů
Vlčími stezkami já běžím vůkol hranic světů

Mám já duchy

Mám já duchy, duchy já mám
Mám já duchy, duchy já mám
Mám já duchy, duchy já mám, mám, mám, mám
