Lyrics

I come from a world where rivers sing a song
And every tree has its place
We love the land, the valleys and the hills
And we know who made them all
Come into my village, feel at home my friend
We’ll make you pounded yam while you sip some
palm-wine
Come leave behind your preconceived ideas,
Into our world of love
I come from a world where rivers sing a song
And every tree has its place
We love the land, the beasts and the birds
And we know who made them all
Down by the river we made a vow
Said we would never be afraid
No matter what may lay ahead, we’ll stand for
what is right
And once again we’ll be masters of the land —
hardworking, honest people
Yes like my mama said years ago
You know that everything will be alright
So let them do what they will, we know the path
we must follow
And the words of our fathers will guide us all the
way to victory
So sisters when you get a bit weary
Put a little song in your mouth
And let the words ring across the land
You know that everything will be alright
Change is gonna come and it’s coming soon
The night was full of merriment
Drumming, singing we rejoice
Lovely maidens led the way and everyone danced
along
Soon the darkness covered everything
Turn by turn we made for bed
With a little smile from my mama saying
everything will be alright
Now I dream of the past and the many days of promise to come
Yes, I am more than ready to bear my burden
with a smile
So come, brother, come along to the farm
Raise your head with pride
Together we will reform this land, everything will
be alright
Change is gonna come and it’s coming soon
