Abdullah Ibrahim - Desert Air Cool evening desert air Warm the loved that once was there Shadows lean against my song Only inner light can right the wrong Namibia Trance dance fire is my one Blue the setting sun Spiral mist that kissed my night goodbye Daybreak rains are tears Cloudburst of the outer years The inner eye What are these words you speak? What is it that you really seek? Your sun-drenched desert waits Bitter aloe lips your sound The sweetness of your paradise unheard Your bird has found its hawk And yet they cannot fly Trance, dance fire is my one Green the setting sun Spiral mist that kissed my night goodbye Daybreak rains are tears Cloudburst of the yesteryears Raise the dust for I must fly towards the inner eye Goodbye Goodbye
If I hear it correctly the lyrics are: Cold, evening desert air - Warm, the love that once was there - Shadows lean against my song - Only inner light can right the wrong - Namibia - Trance, dance, fire is my one - Blue, the setting sun - Spiral mist that kissed my night goodbye - Daybreak rains are tears - Cloudburst over outer years - The inner eye - What are these words you speak - What is it that you really seek - Your sun drenched desert waits - Bitter aloe lips, your sound - The sweetness of your paradise - Unheard - Your bird has found its hawk - And yet they cannot fly - Trance, dance, fire is my one - Green, the setting sun - Spiral mist that kissed my night goodbye - Daybreak rains are tears - Cloudburst of the yester years - Raise the dust for I must fly - Towards the inner eye - Goodbye - Goodbye
@@3DDoor I believe it's "bitter aloe lips". The aloe plant is native to the landscape Ibrahim invokes in this song. It is also medicinal and if you've ever tasted its sap, as is sometimes recommended, it is a bit bitter.
@@m3mn0nYT Thank you! I think you are right. I was struggling with that part and the meaning. But aloe lips sounds better and fits perfectly in the desert scene. So I'll correct it in the text above.

This song belongs among the historical canon in my opinion.

Abdullah Ibrahim - Desert Air
Cool evening desert air
Warm the loved that once was there
Shadows lean against my song
Only inner light can right the wrong
Namibia
Trance dance fire is my one
Blue the setting sun
Spiral mist that kissed my night goodbye
Daybreak rains are tears
Cloudburst of the outer years
The inner eye
What are these words you speak?
What is it that you really seek?
Your sun-drenched desert waits
Bitter aloe lips your sound
The sweetness of your paradise unheard
Your bird has found its hawk
And yet they cannot fly
Trance, dance fire is my one
Green the setting sun
Spiral mist that kissed my night goodbye
Daybreak rains are tears
Cloudburst of the yesteryears
Raise the dust for I must fly towards the inner eye
Goodbye
Goodbye
C'est beau comme un sourire
Magic. this man. and everything he touches.

Für mich ist das grösste musikalische Liebeserklärung an ein Land. Mein Englisch ist nur leider zu schlecht. Wer kann mir den korreken Text geben?
I have to find my CD. It is not sure that I will find the lyrics there.
Found it yet?
