SKVR textEnglish
Veen hingun parantaminen.
Sairas viedään sydän yöllä sille paikalle, mistä sairas arvelee saaneensa kivun ja sitten luetaan:
1Maaria moahinen jumala,Mary, earthly god,
2Veen kultainen kuningas,Golden King of the Waters,
3Ole oikein, seiso selkein!Be righteous, stand resplendent!
4Veen toatot, veen moamot,Water nymphs, water earth-mothers,
5Veen veljet ja sisaret,Water's brothers and sisters,
6Esiin pyyvä tässä,Step forth here,
7Jos olen pahoin tehnyt,If I have erred,
8Kumarra ja anna anteeksi!Bow down and grant forgiveness!
Sitten otetaan pari lastua eli jotain semmoista ja viskataan sille paikalle ja mennään kotia taakseen katsomatta.
