ilia
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Gone is the man
Who loved his land
More than day
If his heart had to leave
His soul was to stay
Hear them calling
From the mountains
Calling from the plains
Hear the wind
Through the leaves
Singing lonely refrains
Banza banza banza banza ixiámi
Ixiámi muá n'gola
N'golo banza N'golo banza oh kima
Uá n'guivila n'go mueniomo
Ni ji pangue já kuteka
Kuilatata uá mudié zé-zé
Mukonda diá n'zó

Pray for the man
Who left his land
Aching for better days
A man who's heart 's
Bound to bleed
For the ones who remain
Uá n'guivila n'go mueniomo
A mu tele oh n'do
Muloji mala kua muxima
