Chicabin chicabin pahkokay.
This is a Navajo prayer for rain. The tapping rhythm accompanies on the first section, and is very soft. It is made up by two beats on the thigh, then a triplet and one beat, tapped by two fingers on the opposite palm. At the end of the song, after a moment's silence, the rain is heard. Following the leader's timing all rub hands together, then cap softly, getting louder and ending by clapping on thighs.
