My place has a light that shines from afar
There are women with eyes full of hope
And music that makes the sun dance
There's sweat mixed with faith
There's a dance that stirs in the feet
Of the elder who knows how to teach
My homeland tastes like coffee
It's where love never loses faith
And longing comes in tides
Where my heart walks barefoot
My place has sorrow that turns into poetry
There is a drum that heals trouble
And a silence that knows how to speak
My place has a fire that never goes out
A prayer that never falls silent
And a love that doesn't know how to judge
My homeland tastes like coffee
It's where love never loses faith
And longing comes in tides
Where my heart walks barefoot
