Dán báikkis, dáin olbmuiguin, dán dilis, dáin návccaiguin, odne, dál:
čalbmat oaivvilda álgit oaidnit. Dát mátki

siivui moai geahččaletne gulahallat gaskaneaset ja dainna báikkiin. Diktit dakkár dili leat doarvai.
Diktit dan johtit čađa čalmmiid, čoavjái čoliide,
goruđii. 

Dát guoktá álggaheaba sániid cuvkemis. Sánit,
maide ii sáhte luohttit, mat eai doala deaivasa go orrot leamen dušše čáhppađa
vielgadis, soahpamuš mii lea jo álgo álggus gaikojuvvon. 
Vuolgiba.

Joavdaba nubbi sadjái, álggaheaba ođđasit,

dáistaleamis láhppon soahpamušain. Geahčastat, mii vánddarda birat birra, bajás
vulos, olggobeallai, siskobeallai, jorggobeallai. 
De fas vuolgiba, johtiba, máhccaba.

English:

Starting from Staring – Čalmmiid Čađa

In this place, in this state of being, with these people, today, now: “čalbmat” means starting to see. This trip starts from staring, from watching, from only watching. Then seeing without preconceptions, expectations or explanations, then meeting each other and with this place. Allowing the kinship to be enough. Allowing it to go through the eyes, into the guts, into the body.

A start without talking. The two of them
start by tearing the words apart. Words that one cannot trust, words that tend
to be only something black on white, a contract torn apart already in the
beginning.
Leaving.

Landing somewhere else, starting all over
again, but with a glimpse of the past. Then hiding the traces, living in a soft
fight, missing a contract. Wandering around and round, from up to down, upside
down, outside and inside.
Then again leaving, moving along, landing.
