In Swahili

Chorus:

In Swahili theres a saying that the word is broken English
In Swahili theres a saying every key has a lock
In Swahili theres a saying the world is small its just a ship
If you dont do it you wont gain
Its your dreams conquer them
They say true words are never beautiful, but listen

Verse One:

Come on out little bird
Dont hold back, face your fears
I understand your predicament but
the nest is small its not the world
Spread your wings cause theyre meant to fly
Shine; ask the star whats her secret
Dine; for this world has many flavours
Youll be fine youre so much stronger than a porcupine
Believe; so say the word of God

Chorus:

Verse Two:

Fly away little bird
Dont come home until youre strong
Find me a leaf on top of Kilimandjaro
No more sorrow for whats over
Long gone are the days when you thought
You wont see the clear blue sky
All it took was to turn the key
And there you are
Standing braver than Jumbo the elephant
Like a child of the universe
Like an Angel on a swing
Bringing promises of sunshine ooh like a weatherman

Chorus Till Fade
