(Mmm)
Grandmother, don't leave before the light comes
Grandmother, I have been waiting
Grandmother, your body calm and tender
Grandmother, couldn't I just have you for a day?
(Appelez de la terre l'esprit de ma grand-mère)
I will always know where to find you
(Appelez de la terre l'esprit de ma grand-mère)
Amongst the stars and under my feet, yeah
(Appelez de la terre l'esprit de ma grand-mère)
And when you glow early morning
(Appelez de la terre l'esprit de ma grand-mère)
I hear my name
Grandmother, the mama of my papa
Grandmother, they say we're two and one
Grandmother, you kissed your living children
Grandmother, and sprinkled soil in their palms
(Appelez de la terre l'esprit de ma grand-mère)
I will always know where to find you
(Appelez de la terre l'esprit de ma grand-mère)
Amongst the stars and under my feet, yeah
(Appelez de la terre l'esprit de ma grand-mère)
And when you glow early morning
I hear my name
Bite through the wind as the funeral mourners sing
Rings through the sky as they dressed her all in white
Tear through the trees as her sons fell to their knees
(Appelez de la terre l'esprit de ma grand-mère)
♪
Grandmother, in ancient text I read you
Grandmother, your pages I will bind
Grandmother, you cast into the future
Grandmother, but I will always look behind
(Appelez de la terre l'esprit de ma grand-mère)
I will always know where to find you
(Appelez de la terre l'esprit de ma grand-mère)
Amongst the stars and under my feet yeah
(Appelez de la terre l'esprit de ma grand-mère)
And when you glow early morning
I hear my name
(Oo, oo-oo, oo-oo, oo)
