But when it came for harvest time, they would sing these joyful songs, that were made up of the names of every child And then the next planting season, when they sang the dirge, they would remove as many names of the dead that equaled as many people that were born.
但是等到收获的时节， 她们又会唱一些愉快的歌， 歌词是由当年出生的 每个孩子的名字组成的。 到了下一次播种的时候，她们也会唱挽歌， 当然她们去掉了很多逝者的名字， 去掉名字的数量等于新生儿出生的数量。
