For twenty years I've sang this song in my head not knowing the name of this song. Glad I discovered this on TH-cam.
You not the only one but I knew the name of the song.
Me too....but longer
Bro same wtf
LMFAOOOO why did they have us singing this in school 😂😂
Did you go to old town San Diego field trip in 4th grade too?? lol
I'm a full blooded Navajo and this song hits me so hard because it reminds me of my people and the legacy of my people that i have to carry. I will not let my people down. That's my mission, forever.
I am not Navajo, but I grew up all my life in Tuba City, AZ, since I was 6 months, until high school graduation and a little beyond. My parents have taught there for over 45 years. I heard this song multiple times, and it hits home, too. I remember it clearly. You will make your people proud. You are from a powerful people. Always remember who you are. I can tell in your passion in your message. Always remember how beautiful it is to be a Dine.
Oh my goodness!!!!! Elementary school days!!!! Mr. Eberly my music teacher had us sing this ALOT! I always loved it!
Cheyanne Woodard yes in my elementary school days in Hawaii my kindergarten teacher would play this song and we would do a sign language i miss Hawaii
Lol yes!
Yup part of the curriculum
I sang this in a play in elementary school! lol haven't heared it in years!

I'm not Navajo but I have much respect for these people there culture is so beautiful and amazing (;
thank you "Shi' Yazh" (my son)

Thanks brother
Looks like everyone has had this in their early years of education...I did too...such a beautiful song as I remember it. Thx to great music from BYU for posting it. 5/5
I'm navajo, and i fell in love when i heard this song the first time, whenever i listen to it...i always think about what i'm gonna say to my 2 year old nephew when he grows up n i have to sing this at graduation! and i'm 11 i'm movin on to 6th grade YAY!!!
Well will you look at that, 12 years later. Time flies
My 5th grade teacher taught us this song. At the time, it was just a song about a father and son, but now, after 12 years and growing up, it makes me tear up. It's a father telling his son that he can be the one who brings the change and makes the world better for himself and his people. Like a duty, a handing of the torch, from elder to young. I still think about it every now and then, powerful message. Thank you Ms. Torres.
We used to do this in elementary, our teacher was white, but he also was half native, got an education and came home to teach us. He would tell me stories and hand language. He will be missed, many teachers have passed away that were always there teaching. Making sure we understood every word. I miss them aho......
I love this song. It brings back so many memories. I remember singing it about 14 or 15 years ago in elementary school.
Bro same
We sing this at school it is my favorite song
I used to listen to this back in my Boarding School days at Tuba City. I remember my sister singing this coming home from the dorms. most of the girls were singing it all the time. it was like a theme for boarding school. It brings back lots of memories of my youth. awww. *
sniff*
I sang this song in my fifth grade graduation and I still remember it today. Beautiful.
Me laying in bed thinking about my elementary music teacher and singing this song! Nothing can take away the influence of a good teacher . Pregnant for the first time at 42 and this will definitely be on my baby play list!!
Seasons came to my grade school back in 97! Just found the song today!
Born in New Mexico, I've Native American blood in my veins. In sixth grade, I heard this song in music class and I had no idea what it meant until now. Climb the ladder means: Succeed well in life, your family and friends will be proud of you. It took me years to figure that out. So climb the ladder, earn your feather, and make your people proud of you.
I remember performing this song in like 1st -2nd grade. The whole elementary school came together! Nostalgic... Just brought my past back
This is my Aunt and Uncle they wrote this song.
Over 10 years ago the 'Living Legends' cast and crew came to New Zealand and performed this amazing collection of indigenous dances to our people and I was soooooo overwhelmed with the 'First Nations' section of it all - this song I remembered since that first night! I've never heard it since, but I've remembered it! Thanks soooo much for posting this. God bless!
Man.. as a Tongan, this speaks to me. We used to sing it in Elementary school but now as a grown man, having a better knowledge of my ancestors and where they come from, this brings a great sense of honor, pride and responsibility upon me and I gladly carry it. My ancestors will be proud of me. God bless and thanks for sharing!!!
When I graduated from elementary school we sang this song.
I sang this song to my sons when they were growing up.
Support your kids, pay attention, listen. Blessings for all. ❤️
Love you B-Boys. So proud to be your mom. Keep climbing my sons. 🌽
I love that song is so beautiful it made me cry
This song had me in a chokehold in 4th & 5th grade! Though I remember a man singing that version, this is still awesome!
Me too. My music teacher, Mr. Edward's used to play it and have us sing it. It was in our music book.
when i hear this it makes me cry because i don't think i've done anything to be proud of despite my attempts to do so.
Go find someone and complement them on something about themselves. Find an older person who needs help and help them. Donate to charity, there's plenty of things to do that you can be proud of.
I can relate
Your attempts are something to be proud of.
You're trying my friend. Wherever you are today, there's lots of people that are proud of you :)
For some reason I have never forgotten this song that I learned in elementary over 30 years ago! I love the calmness that this beat and rhythm creates! I just have never forgotten the feeling it gave me! Still a great song that even nowadays can still have the calming affects it did all those years ago!
I remember singing & signing that beautiful song when I was very young with my family & other stake church members, all of us dressed up as American Indians & other culture costumes, at a temple pageant at the Hamilton New Zealand Temple ..... beautiful education song!
My sport teacher in primary school taught us this song and we all sung it with him at our graduation. I really hope he lives a long and wonderful life for making everyone he meets great full they met.

I remember seeing this show in Nauvoo when I was 16. The whole show was spectacular, but this song in particular stood out.

I herd this song when I was in elementy school I am. Now twenty six still love it
Being part Cherokee, I appreciate this genere of music, especially this song!
It's amazing.
This song always moves me - - - and I ain't even an Indian!
I saw this love was a great experience!
I first heard from this song in elementary and I didn't know what the song meant until now
3rd.grade for me was when I heard this in school back in early 1990.
Beautiful!
My father was Cherokee, but I am adopted, and was born without Indian blood, so I can never be accepted as a Cherokee.
Never the less, I don't know why, but when I first heard this song, I was moved to tears of pride, hope, and joy.
As a student at Brigham Young University, I learned the song, and now you can see my own amateur version on YOU TUBE, which admittedly, doesn't begin to compare with this.
Congratulations on a fantastic production!
This is a very good one
we did too. back about 3 years ago
This song was one sung at my Boy Scout Eagle Court of Honor. That was 20+ years ago. And it continues to be great inspiration to my children.
I sing this in elementary school
Me too
Emiyah Williams -me too
Had to learn this in Elementary School!!!
this and Assassin's creed 3 makes me feel proud to be even Native American decent
The group went to New Zealand about 39 years ago.
Hi qualqui, your spirit never grows old, just your shell does....funny how I feel that way sometime and yet I haven't accept the growing old part of me...lol.
Takes me back to first grade.
