Lyrics and translation
Original
Uishi kwa muda mrefu mfalme
(Uishi kwa, uishi kwa)
Uishi kwa muda mrefu mfalme
(Uishi kwa, uishi kwa)
Yeah, yeah, and the wind is talkin'
Yeah, yeah, for the very first time
With a melody that pulls you towards it
Paintin' pictures of paradise
Sayin', rise up
To the light in the sky, yeah
Watch the light lift your heart up
Burn your flame through the night
Whoa, spirit
Watch the heavens open (open)
Yeah
Spirit
Can you hear it callin'? (Callin')
Yeah
Yeah, yeah, and the water's crashin'
Trying to keep your head up high
While you're tremblin', that's when the magic happens
And the stars gather by, by your side
Sayin' rise up
To the light in the sky, yeah
Let the light lift your heart up
Burn your flame through the night
Yeah, spirit
Watch the heavens open (open)
Yeah
Spirit
Can you hear it callin'? (Callin')
Yeah
Your destiny is comin' close
Stand up and fight
So go into that far off land
And be one with the Great I Am, I Am
A boy becomes a man
Whoa, spirit
Watch the heavens open (open)
Yeah
Spirit
Can you hear it callin'? (Callin')
Yeah
Spirit, yeah
Watch the heavens open, open
Yeah
Spirit, spirit
Can you hear it callin'? (Callin')
Yeah
Your destiny is comin' close
Stand up and fight
So go into a far off land
And be one with the Great I Am
