Nai Mãpu Yubekã
Sky, bird, boa.“The boa mends with the sky, the sky mends with the bird, the bird mends with the earth, the earth mends with the tree [...]” Ibã Huni Kuin on Nai Mapu Yubekã. The song is part of the Huni Meka songs of the Hawen Rautibuya type, those are sung when the mirações [visions] arrive, these chants guide the participants along the “paths of the boa constrictor”, as Ibã often says
