The Water Song
 |
My name is Mtsiltsqet.
I was born August 19, 1947. My parents were Joe and Amy Peters. Their fathers were Chief Harry Peters of Samahquam and Chief Paul Dick of Lil'wat.
I learned our songs from my father and other elders. The Water song came to me in the water at Lil’wat. The song is a healing, helping song, meant to be shared.

Songs and good words are made to be passed on so that generations to come will know what to do. I passed this song to my grandniece Xwem Xwem'atkwa "Swiftwater" who will also share this song as I will. Xwem Xwem'atkwa and I Mtsiltsqet, gladly share this song. [Water Song]
