Oh let the sun beat down upon my face Stars fill my dream I am a traveller of both time and space To be where I have been To sit with elders of a gentle race This world is seldom seen Th' talk of days for which they sit and wait; All will be revealed
Oh baby I've been flyin' yeah, mama, ain't no denyin' Oh yeah, I've been flyin' ain't no denyin', ain't no denyin' Talk and song from tongues of lilting grace Whose sounds caress my ear But not a word I heard could I relate The story was quite clear Yeah ,Yeah Lingala munoko ya ba coco na ngai Tango ba zalaki ko yemba ba zalaki ko sepela Neti ngai sikoyo Na zali ko yemba nzembo oyo Fungola matoi na yo malamu yoka awa Tika ko sala biloko pamba pamba Tango mosusu o si o mona ndoki Kasi ko banga te yaka epai na ngai a ko kanga yo te Misu na ngai ba mona biloko mingi Neti mboka wana batu mingi ba kufa Ba zalaki mayele mingi te Ba zalaki pe batu malamu te neti yo Kasi yaka epai na gnai O ko ngai na misu ya batu misusu
Oh, pilot of the storm who leaves no trace Like thoughts inside a dream Heed the path that led me to that place Yellow desert screams My Shangri-La beneath the summer moon; I will return again Sure as the dust that floats high in June When movin' through Kashmir
