I've been wandering now For God knows how long. I couldn't find my own voice Back in Babylon. Now the road is my song. I was wealthy then, I am richer now, When I try to count The iridescent colours Of the ruby-throated hummingbird. And when nightfall comes With tranquil amethyst skies, My night is sweetened by Angelic Julia in my dreams, Singing a lullaby: Radinonyane Radinonyane Radinonyane I listen to the song of the goldcrests In the morning mist. Oh, they know much more, Than I will ever know. Love songs from tiny souls. Soothing, graceful rain, When you come to me Dripping from the leaves Of a magnolia tree in bloom, My soul is blooming too. I stop to breathe by a brook, Led here by a breeze. Oh, I could have sworn That I wasn't alone Just moments ago. Radinonyane Radinonyane Radinonyane (Tswana name meaning "Mr. Birds")
