Lyrics - Baba Nango by Juluka

I'mm travelleing light,
I'm going to
Baba
Nango
I'm leaving tonight,
I'm going to
Baba
Nango
I'm leaving my crying behind,
I'm going to
Baba
Nango
And when my people see me they will say"
Halala!
It's the child of the hungry earth"
Chorus:
Wo!
Halala halalo halalal!
Halala
Halalo halalal ingane yakithi [halala child of ours]
I'm going back to find my eyes blinded by the night
I know a star that shines above
Baba
Nango
Im going back to find a lost child calling
And when my people see me they will say"
Halala!
It's the child of the dark morning"
Chorus
Woodsmoke clinging to the evnings in
Baba
Nango
Warm bodies curled in a fireplace in
Baba
Nango
My name is on the lips of an old woman mourning
Chorus
Wo buye ingane yakhiti (
Oh return child of ours)
Kwelezontaba ezakithi (return to the mountains of our home)
