Oh now Waniso
Oh now Waniso, now Waniso
Beloved Waniso
Oh now Waniso, now Waniso
Daughter Waniso
Oh now Waniso, now Waniso
On the dawn of a new mellenium
The angels told me your time had come
Oh and un to me would be
One who'd beat a new drum
And the voices sang a song
Singing, the mountains I've climbed
You shall fly from
Oh now Waniso
Oh now Waniso, now Waniso
Beloved Waniso
Oh now Waniso, now Waniso
Daughter Waniso
Oh now Waniso, now Waniso
(Shona)
Looking into your eyes
Moments after your birth
I remembered what prophets once said
As it is in Heaven
So shall it be on Earth
Ah ye ah
Oh now Waniso
Oh now Waniso, now Waniso
Beloved Waniso
Oh now Waniso, now Waniso
Daughter Waniso
Oh now Waniso, now Waniso
As it is in Heaven
So shall it be on Earth
I never used to believe it
Until I saw you
When you were born
And the mountains we have climbed, oh
You shall fly from
Oh now Waniso
Oh now Waniso, now Waniso
Beloved Waniso
Oh now Waniso, now Waniso
Daughter Waniso
Oh now Waniso, now Waniso
See you holders of hope
Hold your shields up high
For the beaters of a new drum have come
Come our way
And the mountains we have climbed
Our children will fly from
Oh now Waniso
Oh now Waniso, now Waniso
Beloved Waniso
Oh now Waniso, now Waniso
Daughter Waniso
Oh now Waniso, now Waniso
