Is this a correct attempt to translate into Tutelo-Saponi the following:
 
Healing winds I call
Upon you
>>From the center of the Earth
I call upon you
Bring on down the holy rain
And wash away all
The hurt and pain
 
 
Mamakle akita ya heni ku kiko hE
Ya -la tawiyan
Ama kyanhe ko yat -se
Ya -la heniku kiko hE tawiyan
Xa wo ha xi ya -se -i yahu a hiphe ka
Yukaweye nikas nedi
Nikas anita huk di -se
 
I used Biloxi where no word was recorded for Tutelo-Saponi. I hope this isn't totally messy.
