Giiwedmi Nangos-Nini

You’ll Never be lost

You’ll never have to search for identity

As Man-of the-North Star you came to be

A member of our family

Now we’ll find our way back to the meaning of Anishinaabe

What does it mean

Being free

The explanation’s in our history

In the blood of our ancestry

It’s a celebration of life

Heritage

Our Seven Grandfathers welcome you

The seven gifts to get you through

This circle of existence
