Lyrics
Deliwe would you love me, but in the north the thunderclouds would judge you, you are a wilderness
And we will praise your name, wisps of the willow fall from your hair Juluka, and as you walk in a foreign land
Bless this land, the children singing in the sand Clegg, you are a jungle juniper
You are a child of africa, and the sorrow that stirs your heart inside is the dust of the regiments
we will praise your name and one day the skies will clear and eagles fly above
give us food to eat
But in the north the thunderclouds would judge you, you are a flame lily, wisps of the willow fall from your hair
and i have drawn the water from your well
You are a flame lily, by the deeds of your fathers hidden from your view
You are a child of africa, and the sorrow that stirs your heart inside is the dust of the regiments
You are a jungle juniper, the songs of a road gang ring
You are a jungle juniper, but in the north the thunderclouds would judge you
the songs of a road gang ring
if soldiers march across our fields
And that melody will haunt your days like falling autumn leaves zulu chorus the, if soldiers march across our fields Johnny, give us food to eat
Wisps of the willow fall from your hair, whatever will you do when the rain starts to fall Johnny, would you leave this land that s green where your home straddles the earth
you are a jungle juniper
bees are buzzing in your honey mouth
oh bless this water
The wind in the north has changed and it blows your way, leave the winds and the blessing of the bushland
Will you join the swallows and fly away, let them graze in peace, oh deliwe won t you stay a while with me repeat zulu chorus fade out with
We will praise your name and one day the skies will clear and eagles fly above, will you join the swallows and fly away
