Not an easy question to answer, for several reasons. There is no single "native American translation" for anything, since there are many thousands of native languages from Alaska to the southernmost tip of South America. Secondly, the native concept of "crazy" is often unlike the European/white American concept.
In native thought (particularly among the Plains tribes) "crazy" refers to someone who has been in some way contacted and heavily influenced by the spirit world and is still full of that experience - so terms like "sacred" or "holy" would also be applied. This is far from the names used in white American contexts for crazy people.
Just a few terms used in North American languages are:
Lakota..........................witko
Crow.............................baalaaxa
Hidatsa.........................madaHapa
Cheyenne.....................masaha or masanee or péeeesé (Hotamémâsêhao'o = Crazy Dogs Warrior Society)
Arapaho........................hohéis
Blackfoot.......................nitáttsa'pssi (= I am crazy)
Ojibwe...........................ningiiwanaadiz (= I am crazy), giiwanaadizi (to be crazy)
Cherokee......................ulánotisgi
Finally, in the Plains sign language the sign for "crazy" is: bring closed right hand pointing upwards close to forehead, turn the hand so as to make a small horizontal circle from left to right. (Almost the same sign, but with first two fingers extended and moving right to left means "sacred", "mysterious" or "medicine").
