Na Jesu atwanekwa tayesu falala he. Na Jesu atwanekwa tayesu falala he. Tayesu falala he, falala he. Tayesu falala he, falala he. Na Jesu atwanekwa tayesu falala he. Na Jesu atwanekwa tayesu falala he. Tayesu falala he, falala he. Tayesu falala he, falala he. Kwaziwai? Kwaziwai? Makasimba, ere? Ndakasimba kana makasimbawo. Ndakasimba, ndakasimba.

You raise you head, you beat the sun But your boys they lie so close to you 'Till you dare get up and wake the two Oh Elias, I see you there at work in the day time Do you think you could answer all the questions in the world In just one word - I think you could
[chorus:] if you die will I get word that you're gone will I hear it in passing conversation or will I stop short and fall to the ground distance is short when your hand carries what your eye found hold my hand just one more time to see if you're really going to meet me hold my hand just one more time to see if you're really going to meet me

chorus
I see your wife she stands stooped over by the fire outside and I see your boys and when they look up You know I think they got their mother's eyes 'cause she looks so proud she looks so happy she looks so proud she looks so happy
