Verse
Take me to the place
Where the river, river runs wild
To the place
A place with fruit or lie?
This place in my dreams
This place is in my head all day
River, river runs wild

Take me to the place
Where the grass is green all year
To the place
Where the bees never sting

This place in my dreams
This place is in my head all day
Where the grass is green all year

Chorus
Ndawo yami (4x)
Ndawo yami (3x), hey hey

Verse
To the place
Where there is no conformity
To the place
A place of liberty

This place in my dreams
This place is in my head all day
Where there's no conformity

Ndawo yami, de wo indawo yami (4x)
Ndawo yami (3x), hey hey

Verse
Zulu lyrics

This place in my dreams
Take me to the place
Where we talk with our eyes
To the place where even winter is warm
To the place where music is played all day
To the place where we sit next to God

Ndawo yami, de wo ndawo yami till fade

To be honest, I really haven't seen a vid for this song, even though I know there is one because a friend got to know it through Channel O. Its a mystery! However, efforts to find it are still in progress, be of good courage :-) U know museke is the answer to all your needs now?

P.S. I love the name "Amara"

Checkirrout. Special Effects are the rockas. And Zamajobe is my long lost twin :-)

Zamajobe is the truth

The video is marvelous! I think it won a number of awards when it came out and now we know why. Thank you Swazibella for finding it.

The song really makes my day, it is too beautiful and Zamajobe is the truth. I would like to imagine her singing at some jazz club in Las Vegas, that would be something eh.

Oh wow, thank you

I love the vid as well, I am all about simplicity most of the time. South African music video producers (or producers of South African music videos) are the rockas, sincerely and truly :-) except for the all-over-the-place-too-busy ones. Zamajobe's Magic video is great too, stay tuned for lyrics coming soon
