Great Heart Songtext
von Johnny Clegg

The world is full of strange behaviour
Every man has to be his own saviour
I know I can make it on my own, if I try
But I′m searching for a Great Heart, to stand me by

Underneath the African sky
A Great Heart to stand me by

I'm searching for the spirit of the Great Heart
To hold and give me by
I′m searching for the spirit of the Great Heart
Under African sky

Sometimes, I feel that you really know me
Sometimes, there's much you can show me

There's a highway of stars, across the heavens
There′s a whispering song of the wind, in the grass
There′s the rolling thunder, across the savanna
A hope and dream, at the edge of the sky

And your life is a story like the wind
Your life is a story like the wind


I'm searching for the spirit of the Great Heart
To hold and stand me by
I′m searching for the spirit of the Great Heart
Under African sky

I'm searching for the spirit of the Great Heart
I see the fire in your eyes
I′m searching for the spirit of the Great Heart
And it's my name inside

Sometimes I feel that you really know me
Sometimes there′s much you can show me

Oh, yo, yo (Oh, yo)
Oh, yo, yo, ma, yo (Oh, yo)
Oh, yo, yo (Oh, yo)
Oh, yo, yo, ma, yo (Oh, yo)

Oh, yo, yo (Oh, yo)
Oh, yo, yo, ma, yo (Oh, yo)
Oh, yo, yo (Oh, yo)
Oh, yo, yo, ma, yo (Oh, yo)

Oh, yo, yo (Oh, yo)
Oh, yo, yo, ma, yo (Oh, yo)
Oh, yo, yo (Oh, yo)
Oh, yo, yo, ma, yo (Oh, yo)


I'm searching for the spirit of the Great Heart
Guka 'mzimba, sala ′nhliziyo
I′m searching for the spirit of the Great Heart
Guka 'mzimba, sala ′nhliziyo

I'm searching for the spirit of the Great Heart
To hold and stand me by
I′m searching for the spirit of the Great Heart
Under African sky

I'm searching for the spirit of the Great Heart
Guka ′mzimba, sala 'nhliziyo
I'm searching for the spirit of the Great Heart
Guka ′mzimba, sala ′nhliziyo

I'm searching for the spirit of the Great Heart
Guka ′mzimba, sala 'nhliziyo
I′m searching for the spirit of the Great Heart
