Rete ymã ha'eguy aym Rete pytum ha'eguy rendy Rete wa'ekwe ha'eguy wa'erã When my mission’s over It is time to go ahead I'll take what I have learned Leave behind what I dread My totem guides me through the circle of life I’ll reach again the sacred plains We’ll join in there, as the fire of life fades out I’ll find my next home in there Sing with me! Honor my name! Not an end, but a new beginning Sing with me! Honor my name! Celebrate it with the dance of transition When the smoke purifies me Opening up my ways My ancestors await me And help me to transcend
