lyrics

Heat wave descends from the Berg country winds and we pray for rain, yes we dance for rain. It doesn’t come for days, sweat brings a glow and we all walk alone, yes we all walk alone, past buildings and trees, contemplating defeat, but I will not retreat, until I reach the shore. Drought comes to us as I turn to dust. I wash myself clean in the salty dreams of the Indian Ocean.

I would give up everything if I could, I’d give up anything and everything and everything I would. I’d give up anything if it could only take away all your hurting.

Chorus:

Bambelela….. Bambelela

Um’uthando Luphelie / Selufile

Bambelela….. Bambelela

Um’umfula usuwomile /nezi
Nyembezi / zinga neli

Bambelela

Second verse:

A gypsy cursed me years ago on a train ride in India, since that dreadful day I’ve never been the same my heart dried up like a dusty old well, well at least I have this pretty good story to tell. I became the walking dead, I became a soulless piece of lead and I would not wish this fate on anyone.
