aho !!!!!!! its nice to hear a family singing together .......... NIZHONII !!!! many many many more to come

[@esclavadeAllah]

Beautiful! I wish I could understand what they're saying. Yet, it suffices to hear their voices and rhythm for one to feel the warmth, love and care this family has and shares for their loves ones. May Allah be pleased with their feelings and thoughts and bless them with more, amen.

[@libbywilliams1193]

I admire the Nelson Family singing and praying together. It is very inspirational.

Absolutely beautiful - A great singer & Cultural diplomat from Chinle, AZ; Douglas Mitchell, (God rest his soul) shared many beautiful moments like this with his friends and students at Wesleyan University, Middletown, CT during the early 1970's. Navaho Music and its sentiments have found its way into many hearts around the world. Thank you all so much for sharing with us. "Viva Navaho!"

[@dianescribeniiganii1876]

I can see all the spirits that came to celebrate with you, made me feel so good to see your family celebrating and singing together for your new one. It was awesome to see how they all came to touch your little one and how they came through you as you were singing, My heart is so lifted. Your song is beautiful. Creator is so awesome, Thank you for sharing.

I wasn't able to give my son a proper birthday this year, but I had a meeting and they sang this song for my son... It was beautiful in every way, I'm very grateful to those who helped.

[@dinebutterfly01]

Oh my the guy in the blue shirt has a great singing voice.. I like this song.

[@g3naV]

I truly am inspired by this song everytime I listen to it. Though I may not be celebrating a birthday I often find myself coming back to this song to listen. This song composes a family unit and a celebration of life in which I find much comfort in. May the creator continue to bless this family and any family going through any hardships.

My mothers birthday is today and this song would have been great to sing her. It's a beautiful song.

[@brandonguitierez3504]

I can see how much this Father loves his son. I can see how intent this son is on listening to his Father. Too many of our sons dont have dads like this. In my simple mind, this is what is missing in much of Indian Country. Thank you for posting this video. I have one son left, and I hope that my son can see in me, what I can only imagine this oha'a naatsi (baby boy) sees in his naa (father)

This is such a beautiful youtube video I came across after work. I have never heard a Navajo Peyote Birthday song replacing the English version of Happy Birthday song during a home birthday celebration. It made me happy and to hear the baby's happiness. I love it! Many more blessings to the little one extending out to the family.
