Maru A Pula (Clouds Of Rain) - Letta Mbulu

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

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

(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)
