Anniversary, Wedding, Romance Selections - APACHE BLESSING
... Author Unknown
Now you will feel no rain for each of you will be shelter to the other.
This popular blessing is known by many names: Apache Wedding Blessing, Apache Wedding Prayer, Apache Song, and Cherokee Wedding Prayer.
This blessing has been published in several variations, including an extended version. If the source is Apache, the original language would have been Athabascan. Susan chose oriole feathers to illustrate the quotation. In nature, feathers provide warmth and shelter. Orioles were revered by the Apache, who likened them to yellow flowers and corn pollen. The common name, oriole, is from aureolus, Latin for golden.
"APACHE BLESSING" Traditional, print by Susan Loy
