Juluka - Baba Nango lyrics

rate me

I'mm travelleing light, I'm going to Baba Nango<br />

I'm leaving tonight, I'm going to Baba Nango<br />

I'm leaving my crying behind, I'm going to Baba Nango<br />

And when my people see me they will say<br />

"Halala! It's the child of the hungry earth"<br />

Chorus:<br />

Wo! Halala halalo halalal!<br />

Halala Halalo halalal ingane yakithi [halala child of ours]<br />

I'm going back to find my eyes blinded by the night<br />

I know a star that shines above Baba Nango<br />

Im going back to find a lost child calling<br />

And when my people see me they will say<br />

"Halala! It's the child of the dark morning"<br />

Chorus<br />

Woodsmoke clinging to the evnings in Baba Nango<br />

Warm bodies curled in a fireplace in Baba Nango<br />

My name is on the lips of an old woman mourning<br />

Chorus<br />

Wo buye ingane yakhiti (Oh return child of ours)<br />

Kwelezontaba ezakithi (return to the mountains of our home)
