We n' de ya ho, We n' de ya ho,

We n' de ya, We n' de ya Ho ho ho ho,

He ya ho, He ya ho, Ya ya ya

"We n' de ya ho

OMG, I REMEMBER MY GREAT GREAT GRANDFATHER SAYING THIS TO ME OVER AND OVER WHEN I WOULD BE COMING TO SEE HIM AND RIDE MY HORSE BY HIS HOUSE, HE WOULD TRY I FEEL TO TEACH ME THINGS THAT I WISH SO BADLY I HAD STOPPED AND REALLY HEARD WHAT THAT DEAR SWEET MAN WAS SAYING. HE WAS FULL BLOOD CHEROKEE, I AM SO PROUD OF HIS BLOOD. WISH I HAD JUST TAKEN THE TIME TO ASK HIM SO MANY QUESTIONS ABT HIS FAMILY. I WAS REALLY YOUNG. HE LOVED TEACHING ME TO RIDE WITHOUT A SADDLE AND RUNNING AS FAST MY HORSE WOULD TAKE ME. I LOVED MAKING HIM PROUD. i LOVE YOU DEARLY GREAT GRANDFATHER TAYLOR

333 comments... I see this number since May this year... I am Quechua Aymara Indian from Bolivia but in essence same tribal blood as Cherokee brothers sisters, we wear our Manta as you do... Our Manta is holy and holds our tribal colors. We too suffered the wrath of conquest but our Song does not silence... it rides over mountains... flies over seas for all to Hear our Cries... Hear our Souls! We live on through our Songs! 333
