The Prophesy of the Four Crows

Of all the indiginous cultures that were anihilated in the name of progress by the Europeans, I've always thought the Native Americans of what is now north-east USA were the most tragic. So I was pleased to be confirmed in my soft spot when I stumbled across this ancient prophesy at an exhibit in UPenn's anthropology museum (navaho language followed by English):

Lomewe, luwe na okwes xu laxakwihele xkwithakamika.
Long ago it was said that a fox will be loosened on the earth.

Ok nen luwe newa ahasak xu peyok.
Also it was said four crows will come.

Netami ahas kenthu li guttitehewagan wichi Kishelemukonk.
The first crow flew the way of harmony with Creator.

Nisheneit ahas kwechi pilito entalelemukonk, shek palsu ok ankela.
The second crow tried to clean the world, but he became sick and he died.

Nexeneit ahas weneyoo ankelek xansa ok koshiphuwe.
The third crow saw his dead brother and he hid.

Neweneit ahas kenthu li guttitehewagan lapi wichi Kishelemukonk.
The fourth crow flew the way of harmony again with Creator.

Kenahkihechik xu withatuwak xkwithakamika.
Caretakers they will live together on the earth.

The random fox bit at the beginning is a tad puzzling, but otherwise I think this prophesy matches exactly with what I would predict. I'd say right now we're around crow #3, though perhaps still suffering some of the remenants of #2.
