Vuoiŋŋa

Vuoigŋá várkkain

Heargi njolggasta

Geassá gerresa

Rasttida jávrri

Reaŋga čuoigá
Jieŋa nalde
Galbma biekkat
bossut jávrris


Vuoigŋat fertet
Mánná lea boahtime
Vuoigŋat fertet
Mánná lea boahtime
Vuoigŋat fertet
Mánná lea boahtime

Riegádahtá gerresis jávrri nalde

Čuohppá niibbiin

Náhpečoali
Mánná čierru

Boahtá eatni lusa

VuodjilahIá hearggi Viidáseappot
Jávrri rastá

Čálbmeáhku lusa

Breathe

She breathes through the labour pains

The reindeer runs, pulls the sled across the lake

The herder skis on the ice

Cold winds blow across the lake

Must breathe

The baby is coming

Must breathe

The baby is coming

Must breathe

The baby is coming

Gives birth in the sled on the lake

Cuts with the knife

The umbilical cord

The baby cries

Comes to mother

Urges the reindeer on

Further across the lake

Towards the midwife
