The following is newly developed as a written translation of the meanings of a traditional dance.
A trustworthy friend is better than strong armor. A trustworthy friend is the best defense. A trustworthy friend will protect your flanks and carry your water.
A child is the greatest source of wealth for a family. A child builds wealth and honor when one is old. Of great value is the pregnant mother--she is the source of hope for a family. Of great value is the father of a child--he will gather the grain while she gestates. Of great value is the child who follows the path of his parents and bears children--he will ensure the progress of the family.
Of great value is the child who never conceives children--he will be a safeguard for the family. The child who never conceives is like a spouse to all and will sacrifice all of his self for the rest. He is as of the very image of the maker of all, molding with his every claw. He becomes the greatest warrior and becomes the greatest priest; he becomes the greatest confidant and the most dedicated craftsman.
