[Intro] Chale,
when
the
road
gets
long
And
the
shadows
start
to
grow
[Verse 1] I
look
back
at
the
path
I
have
walked
alone
Sometimes
tondolo
eumfwika

pamashiwi
ayomfwika

The
weight
of
the
world
settles
deep
in
my
chest

and
you
softened
my
pain
[Chorus] Oh,

My
strength
is
in
the
love
that
you
gave
to
me
You
are
the
fire
when
the
night
is
turning
cold
The
greatest
story
that
has
ever
been
told
[Verse 2] When
loneliness
knocks
and
the
rooms
feel
so
wide
I
feel
your
prayers
flowing
right
there
by
my
side
Chale,
your
laughter
is
the
anchor
for
my
soul
It
makes
me
feel
human,
it
makes
me
feel
whole
My
children,
you
are
the
blossoms
of
my
tomorrow
You
wash
away
the
traces
of
all
of
my
sorrow
[Chorus] Oh,
olo
Bakati
konabula
mukowa
kombe
kokwete
My
strength
is
in
the
love
that
you
gave
to
me
You
are
the
fire
when
the
night
is
turning
cold
The
greatest
story
that
has
ever
been
told
[Bridge] Long
live
the
seeds
that
I
planted
in
the
sun
Long
live
the
journey
that
has
only
just
begun
I
am
weak
but
I
am
rising
because
of
your
care
There
is
magic
in
the
way
that
you
are
always
there
[Verse 3] Oyiwa,
I
see
the
future
in
the
eyes
of
my
kin
This
is
where
the
healing
and
the
light
will
begin
No
matter
the
distance
or
the
years
that
go
by
Your
love
is
the
mountain
that
is
touching
the
sky
[Chorus] Oh,
olo
Bakati
konabula
mukowa
kombe
kokwete
My
strength
is
in
the
love
that
you
gave
to
me
You
are
the
fire
when
the
night
is
turning
cold
The
greatest
story
that
has
ever
been
told
[Outro] Eii,
to
my
siblings
and
my
children,
I
say
medasi
Long
live
the
love,
forever
keeping
me
steady
Wonim?
You
are
the
strength
inside
my
bones
Chale,
we
rise
together,
never
alone.
