From the doorway in, we sit in circle
To the doorway out, all here are equal

In the brightness of the day
We gather as we work, we play
The sun falls and the tipi rises

The day is gone, the moon is done
The circle forms, one by one
Tobacco laid, the fire blazes

Teotlkali Floricantos, Teotlkali Floricantos, Teotlkali Floricantos
Teotlkali Floricantos, Teotlkali Floricantos, Teotlkali Floricantos

The night is long, but soon is gone,
The space is filled with prayer and song
~ Focusing on our intentions

Beauty comes with feathers worn
Hearts are filled with love and fun
~ Emanating our affections

Teotlkali Floricantos, Teotlkali Floricantos, Teotlkali Floricantos
Teotlkali Floricantos, Teotlkali Floricantos, Teotlkali Floricantos

We have so many songs to sing,
To spiral upward on our wings
So many ways to praise creation

Back toward the ground again
Gliding earthward, spiralling
Tobaccos lit, prayers are spoken

Teotlkali Floricantos, Teotlkali Floricantos, Teotlkali Floricantos
Teotlkali Floricantos, Teotlkali Floricantos, Teotlkali Floricantos

We’re through the deepest of the night
The sky is changed by morning light
The dawn will soon come rushing in

We’re singing-in the coming day
Using our last chance to pray
The birds show us how to begin

Teotlkali Floricantos, Teotlkali Floricantos, Teotlkali Floricantos
Teotlkali Floricantos, Teotlkali Floricantos, Teotlkali Floricantos

From the doorway in, we all are one
Through the doorway out, welcome the sun
