Child of the Earth Lyrics by Hugh Masekela

Black to the Future

0

Walking through the valley
That is where I met my Love
Walking down the hillside
Calabash on her head
Blending with nature
Child of the Earth
Rain draws Earth's aroma
Bringing fragrance to the air
Walking down the hillside
Lighten up her aroma
Fragrance like nature
Child of the Earth
Her crown was baked in clay from the heart of the soil
Whoa, necklace of beads, they strike sunshine
Wrapped around the cloth of rainbow
Mmm, humming with the bees
Walking through the valley
That is where I met my Love
Whoa, walking down the hillside
Calabash on her head
Blending with nature
Child of the Earth
Mmm, Child of the Earth
