Child of War

מילים: נועה גולן ודג'לי טפה (תרגום למנדינקה) / לחן: סנגיט ודג'לי טפה


Calling out your name oh please lord
Help me understand this world
I know when the darkness swallows
A bigger light will then follow

A Child of a war
Doesn't know where else to go
Burning village, nothing left, no home
It's only her and her sister
And the baby inside her
Alone In this crazy wild world

A Baby of a rebel gang
Growing to the pulse of a tragedy
she keeps running
Her young soul knows
She must Bury the ghosts
And move on, move on
Calling out your name…

Motherless child she is
Planting seeds with tears and hope
And the world is oh so big
And her heart is clean and strong
And she wants to live
She knows one thing for sure
Somewhere the sky is still blue
