Great Currents is a generalized G'Fondo'Nah greeting, and is used in many different ways to express the current emotion of the individual, the formality of the greeting, and more. To say "Great Currents lift you up," to a Fondo, this is the same thing as "may the wind fill your wings, and lift you high in the air." In other words, "Greetings, and may great blessing fall upon you." Another, much simpler way to translate this might be to say, "greetings, and great blessings to you." This phrase can also be used negatively, such as "May Great Currents drown your wings." In other words, "may you suffer great misfortune and be unable to fly." IE, may you suffer great tragedy and be grounded. So, the term "Great Currents" tends to be general, and refers, not just to air and air currents, which birds greatly prize, but can also be made to imply a number of other things, both good, bad, and sometimes neutral. The ultimate meaning of that phrase, though, depends heavily on the speaker, as well as their tone, and the context of the other words and phrases contained with it. So, in summary, the human equivalent of this phrase might be "Good Morning," or simply "Hello", with other words and sentences being used to qualify the initial greeting.
