| Traditional Songs and their meaning: The House Song is a traditional song, primarily sung to bless the home and all who live in the home. The home provides security, protection, shelter and is sometimes seen as a place of sanctuary. The Ga'an Song is a traditional Apache Crown Dance song, primarily sung for the Crown Dancers, usually representing the four directions; north, south, east and west. The Prayer Songs are traditional Apache songs of healing. These songs are also songs of strength, love, peace, joy and happiness. The Horse Song is a traditional song, primarily sung for all the beautiful, colorful horses and the appreciation of their courageous spirit. The Sunrise Song is a traditional Apache sunrise dance song that is only sung during the sunrise ceremony for the young women who are coming of age into womanhood. Contemporary Songs: The Social Songs are sung at the sunrise ceremony and are shared within the campgrounds of the young women who are celebrating their sunrise (womanhood). The Social Songs vary from friendship to heartache to love to faith to hope to strength to a place of remembrance, basically songs of life. |
