Darkness And Trees (Reprise)

Finally, out of the darkness, my bus arrives at
The Salvation Army camp

KATI YA GIZA

We pass through a large gate and the bus pulls to a stop
And through the windows -out there in the darkness-
We see all these people coming out of the buildings

GHAFLA MWANGAZA

We rarely use them, but everyone's dusted off their
Salvation Army uniforms to welcome these people

There are soldiers everywhere

PANDE ZOTE SISI

The man at the front opens the door

I say, "Here you are, out you go"
But he doesn't understand
And he's not getting off
None of them are

GIZA NA MITI

But then I notice his wife when she's clutching a bible
Now, obviously I can't read It
But their bible, it'll have the same number system ours does
So I ask to see it
And I'm searching for something and then
In Philippians 4:6
I give 'em their bible and I'm pointing, saying,
Look! Philippians 4:6
Be Anxious for nothing
Be anxious for nothing

And that's how we started speaking the same language

KATI YA GIZA
(Out of the darkness)
GHAFLA MWANGAZA
(Suddenly brightness)
MA-BADILIKO
(Everything changes)
GIZA NA MITI
(Darkness and trees)
KATI YA GIZA
(Out of the darkness)
MA-BADILIKO
(Suddenly light)
