about

A song about life and death.

lyrics

Ivhu ndiro rino ziva chete kuti mwana we mbeva anorwara
(Only the ground knows when a baby mouse is sick)

Ivhu ndiro rino ziva chete kuti mwana we mbeva anorwara
(Only the ground knows when a baby mouse is sick)

Gone!

Ivhu ndiro rino ziva chete kuti mwana we mbeva anorwara
(Only the ground knows when a baby mouse is sick)

Wafa warova, toisa muivhu
(The dead are gone, we put them in the ground)

Wafa warova, toisa muguva
(The dead are gone, we put them in graves)

Wafa warova, toisa muivhu
(The dead are gone, we put them in the ground)

Wafa warova, toisa muguva
(The dead are gone, we put them in graves)

Warova
(Gone)

Muguva
(In the grave)


Upenyu wedu vanhu wakukosha
(Our lives are precious)

Upenyu wedu vanhu wakunetsa
(Our lives are tiring)

Upenyu wedu vanhu wakukosha
(Our lives are precious)

Upenyu wedu vanhu waoma
(Our lives are empty/dry)

Haasi makore aka kosha, asi upenyu mu makore ako
(It's not the years in your life that are important, but the life in your years)

Chokwadi, haasi makore aka kosha, asi upenyu mu makore ako
(This is the truth, it's not the years in your life that are important, but the life in your years)

Wafa warova, toisa muivhu
(The dead are gone, we put them in the ground)

Wafa warova, toisa muguva
(The dead are gone, we put them in graves)

Wafa warova, toisa muivhu
(The dead are gone, we put them in the ground)

Wafa warova, toisa muguva
(The dead are gone, we put them in graves)

Warova
(Gone)

Muguva
(In the grave)

Warova
(Gone)

Muguva
(In the grave)


Upenyu wedu vanhu wakukosha
(Our lives are precious)

Upenyu wedu vanhu wakunetsa
(Our lives are tiring)

Upenyu wedu vanhu wakukosha
(Our lives are precious)

Upenyu wedu vanhu waoma
(Our lives are empty/dry)

Gone!

Gone!

Warova!
(Gone!)
