Description
This is inspired by the Johnny Clegg song of the same name. Here are the lyrics for anyone who us interested:-)It is dedicated to my South African friend, Amira, a great artist here on Rendo. I hope you like it my dear friend!!!!
THE SPIRIT OF THE GREAT HEART
The world is full of strange behaviour
Every man has to be his own saviour
I know I can make it on my own if I try
But I'm searching for a Great Heart to stand me by
Underneath the African sky
A Great Heart to stand me by
Chorus:
I'm searching for the spirit of the Great Heart
To hold and stand me by
I'm searching for the spirit of the Great Heart
Under African sky
I'm searching for the spirit of the Great Heart
I see the fire in your eyes
I'm searching for the spirit of the Great Heart
That beats my name inside
Sometimes I feel that you really know me
Sometimes there's much you can show me
There's a highway of stars across the heavens
The whispering song of the wind in the grass
There's the rolling thunder across the savanna
A hope and dream at the edge of the sky
And your life is a story like the wind
Your life is a story like the wind
Chorus
Guka 'mzimba (body grow old)
Sala 'nhliziyo (but heart remain behind)
Words by Johnny Clegg, who is affectionately called the white Zulu:-)

This instantly reminded me of another great song by Miriam Makeba called "Africa is where my heart lies". I copied some of the lyrics below. Great picture. A picturesque sunset lights up the sky A magical moment of light passing by Romantic rhythms that beat through the night Mother nature’s gift for you and I Oh! Oh! Africa is my hope Don’t you know that home is Where my heart lies Across the ocean Into the African skies Through the hills and valleys Over the mountains Africa, is where my heart lies
