I'm travelling light I’m going to Baba Nango
I’m leaving tonight I’m going to Baba Nango
I’m leaving my crying behind I’m going to Baba Nango
And when my people see me they will say
"Halala! It’s the child of the hungry earth."

Chorus:
Wo halala halalo halala!
Halala halalo halala ingane yakithi! (Halala child of ours)

Im going back to find my eyes blinded by the night
I know a star that shines above Baba Nango
I’m going back to find a lost child calling
And when my people see me they will say
"halala! It's the child of the dark morning."

Chorus:
Woodsmoke clinging to the evenings in Baba Nango
Warm bodies curled in a fireplace in Baba Nango
My name is on the lips of an old woman mourning

Chorus:
Wo buye ingane yakithi (Oh return child of ours)
Kwelezontaba ezakithi (Return to the mountaîns of our home)
