Poem to Ease Birth
Anonymous (from Nahuatl, Aztec)
In the house with the tortoise chair she will give birth to the pearl to the beautiful feather
in the house of the goddess who sits on a tortoise she will give birth to the necklace of pearls to the beautiful feathers we are
there she sits on the tortoise swelling to give us birth
on your way on your way child be on your way to me here you whom I made new
come here child - come be pearl be beautiful feather
