Savuka - Are You Ready? lyrics

rate me

Hawa Beke Mama Oye<br />

Hamba ugadile (be alert and be on guard)<br />

I feel a river in flood in my veins<br />

I can feel your love in my brain<br />

It wants to dance my life<br />

Through a hurricane<br />

Dance the mamba across<br />

The Oshakati plain<br />

Chorus:<br />

Hamba ugadile 'mntanami (be alert and be on guard my child)<br />

The world has crocodile eyes<br />

And if you dance the<br />

Oshakati mamba<br />

Remember to cross yourself twice --<br />

Are you ready<br />

Hawa Beke Mama Oye<br />

Hamba ugadile (be alert and be on guard)<br />

I need to sail away, escape this cage<br />

I can see the sky and the Milky Way<br />

Be my lover tonight, show me the wisdom of life<br />

Dance the mamba, across the Oshakati night<br />

Hamba ugadile 'mntanami (be alert and be on guard my child)<br />

The world has crocodile eyes<br />

And if you dance the<br />

Oshakati mamba<br />

Remember to cross yourself twice --<br />

Are you ready<br />

And if you dance the<br />

Oshakati mamba<br />

You'll be dancing on desert air<br />

Like a seagull searching for the ocean<br />

Like a lover playing solitaire
