The Sheep in Winter

February 11, 2015 by

The Sheep in Winter – Navajo Language Lessons

The sheep are wet and cold.
They are hungry, too.
If the snow keeps falling,it will be bad for the sheep.
Perhaps that is why the wind cries.
Perhaps the wind is sorry for the sheep.
That is what I think.

Dibé daditléé dóó dabi’niidlí.

‘Éí daats’í biniinaa níyol ‘áni.
Níyol daats’í dibé yaah bíni.
