Maru A Pula by Letta Mbulu Lyrics

[Intro]
Maru a pula is a song of happiness
Maru a pula is a song of happiness
Come on people gather round I'll tell you why
Come on people gather round I'll tell you why

[Verse]
Long ago in a land of summer rains
One hot summer the rains never came
The sun was burning the earth hot and dry
Birds of music were not up in the sky
Seven years went by and nothing changed
Fish were dying cos the rivers were running dry
People saw precious crops and cattle die
But Mother Nature couldn't bear to see her children die

[Chorus]
Look over yonder (There are clouds up in the sky)
Look over yonder (The sound of music is the air)
Look over yonder (Birds singing in harmony)
Look over yonder (A good sign it's gonna rain)
Helelelelelelelelelele (It's gonna rain, rain, it's gonna rain)
