Makasimba, here? |

You raise your head, beneath the sun |
|
But your boys they lie so close to you |
|
Do you dare get up and wake the two |
|
Oh Elias, as I see you there, at work in the daytime |
|
Do you think you could answer All the questions in the world |
|
in just one word - I think you could |
|
If you die will I get word that you're gone |
|
Will I hear it in passing conversation |
|
Will I stop short and fall to the ground |
|
Distance is short when your hand carries what your eye found. |
|
Hold my hand just one more time, |
|
to see if you're really going to meet me |
|
Hold my hand just one more time, |
|
to see if you're really gonna meet me. |
|
Honest and Manuel, well you know, they're at school now |
|
Given the chance that their father's never seen |
|
To see whats beyond Section 17. |
|
And in ten years, when you look back at your boys, |
|
well you know they've grown way taller |
|
than the tallest sugar cane in the field. |
|
If you die will I get word that you're gone? |
|
Will I hear it in passing conversation? |
|
Will I stop short and fall to the ground? |
|
Distance is short when your hand carries what your eye found. |

Hold my hand just one more time. |
|
Hold my hand just one more time. |
|
Hold my hand just one more time, |
|
to see if you're really gonna meet me. |
|
I see your wife. She stands stooped over by the fire outside. |
|
And I see your boys. And when they look up, |
|
you know I think they got their mother's eyes. |
|
'Cause she looks so proud. She looks so happy. |
|
She looks so proud. She looks so happy. Yeaaaaaaaaah |
|
If you die will I get word that you're gone? |
|
Will I hear it in passing conversation? |
|
Will I stop short and fall to the ground? |
|
Distance is short when your hand carries what your eye found. |
|
Hold my hand just one more time, |
|
to see if you're really gonna meet me. |
|
Hold my hand just one more time, |
|
to see if you're really gonna meet me. |
|
Hold my hand just one more time. (Aya, Aya, Ayaahah) |
|
Hold my hand, one more time. (Aya, Aya, Ayaahah) |
|
aya ya ya, yah yah yah, yah yah yah (Aya, Aya, Ayaahaha) |
|
Hold my hand just one more time, |
|
to see if you're really gonna meet me. |
|
Hold my hand just one more time, |
|
to see if you're really gonna meet me. |
|
...Translation of beginning... |
|
Dai Jesu achoinekwa ndaizofara naye |

If I could meet my Jesus I would be very happy with him. |
|
Taizofara naye |
|
We would be happy with him |
