Johnny Clegg - Congo Lyrics

White stone hidden in the ground 
Gonna take a life before it's found
(INDLELA YASE - CONGO the Congo way)

Tribesman from jungle town
He's heading down to the digging mound
Young man in the sun, dig for diamonds everyone
Soldiers in camouflage, drinking and playing cards

UBANI ONGAKHOMBA-NJE?
(Who can show me?)
UBANI ONGASIZA, MADODA
(Who can help me?)
INDLELA EYASE-CONGA, NGIYA YASE CONGO
(The way to the Congo, I am going to the Congo) 

Life pulsing with such hope,
We digging down  in the river slope
Shiny stone set me free
I'll go home a Big Daddy
Freedom is food to eat
Good strong boots upon your feet
Can you sneak a small stone by a  waiting soldier's  hungry eye?

C UBANI ONGAKHOMBA-NJE?
(Who  can show me?)
UBANI ONGASIZA, MADODA,
(Who can help me?)
INDLELA EYASE-CONGA, NGIYA YASE CONGO
(The way to the Congo, I am going to the Congo) 

Let me lie with you a while
And hope this dream will carry over
A new hand to deal
A new hope to feel 
My hands hold real seeds of a Sower
If I could fly across your sky
And make you laugh
I know I could be a winner

UBANI ONGAKHOMBA-NJE?
(Who  can show me?)
UBANI ONGASIZA, MADODA,
(Who can help me?)
INDLELA EYASE-CONGA, NGIYA YASE CONGO
(The way to the Congo, I am going to the Congo) 

Here comes that feeling oh Boy
I'm rising above the earth again
Here comes that feeling oh boy
I'll be delivered but I don't know when 

AWU! AWU! AWU!HAWU NGIYAKHUMBULA INDAWO ENGINGAYAZI
(OH !OH !OH! I am remembering a place that I have never seen and do not  know)
WENHLIZIYO YAMI NGIYAKHALA
(My heart is aching)
ENGINGAYAZI MINA
(A place that I have never seen)

Comets and clouds and red, red rain
Filling up my sky above this dark empty plain
Somebody reading a book, God for Beginners
Looking around, I saw you, sitting with us sinners
And so you fill my mind, give me a new design
I see your river-smile while I float like a feather
Leave what's behind cos all the words are spoken
It's the time of the sign when the code is never broken

UBANI ONGAKHOMBA-NJE?
(Who  can show me ?)
UBANI ONGASIZA , MADODA
(Who can help me ?)
INDLELA EYASE-CONGA, NGIYA YASE CONGO
(The way to the Congo, I am going to the Congo)
