The Twelfth Song of Thunder exultates “(...) The voice of thunder / Within the dark cloud / Again and again it sounds, / The voice that beautifies the land (...) The voice of the grasshopper / Among the plants / Again and again it sounds, / The voice that beautifies the land”. This excerpt reveals the deep connection between the members of the Navajo nation and the surrounding environment, which consisted of the many sounds and voices that emanated from nature. The Twelfth Song of Thunder presents rich descriptions of the beauty that can be found in nature in the eyes of a Navajo, and illustrates the intrinsic admiration for the land and for what is present in the land, as the Navajo lifestyle is inherently linked to natural phenomenons.
