[Verse] Under red earth, I carry your name Clay on my hands, fire in the rain You call from the hill, I answer below A circle of footsteps begins to grow [Chorus] Call me, call me, across the ground I hear you, I hear you, the drums resound Hold me, guide me, where the warm winds start I bring your rhythm, you bring my heart [Verse] Kola and water beside the old tree Your voice finds the river and travels to me Grandmothers humming, children in line A moon over rooftops, a lantern of mine [Chorus] Call me, call me, across the ground I hear you, I hear you, the drums resound Hold me, guide me, where the warm winds start I bring your rhythm, you bring my heart [Bridge] Female lead: I lift the red dust Male response: We rise with the dust Female lead: I carry the first flame Male response: We guard the flame Female lead: Come closer, come closer Male response: We answer, we answer [Outro] When morning reaches the far side of the plain Your call remains in my blood like rain
