father now adornment

father now adornment crushing face seeds

mouth left heart behind worshiped light

avengers center sky womb Q'ukumatz dark

thought appeared maize path shaped

fields grinding fat arms entered food

merely birth alone talked faces rocks

seas mountain speech not sky moved

knowledge small mistake increase thunder

essence heart's sleep B'alam root walking

quarreled spoke wood words sown Juraqan

weary dawn canyon pack arrived language

split skins different enchanted no fire

bloodletter fire hail finish drilled ex

tinguished language cursed abandoned trees

cursed wings fire shaped blackened rain

crawl on hands not mouths destroyed
