Lyrics

This song was, eh, I was told to sing by Miriam Makeba And she is my dear friend And it is a prayer Those of you who are fans of hers will remember this song Westwind blow ye gentle Over the shores of yesterday My sun is brown and over Here within my heart they lay, they lay Westwind with your wisdom Gather all the young for me Black cloud hanging over Nest your bosom strong and free Got each gallon water is plane Got each gallon water is plane 'Cos I am the soil from which they came I am the soil from which they came So Westwind with your splendor Take my people by the hand Spread your glory sunshine off And unify my promised land Unify us don't divide us, unify us don't divide us Unify us don't divide us, unify us don't divide us Unify us don't divide us, unify us don't divide us Unify us don't divide us Westwind with your splendor Take my people by the hand Spread your glory sunshine out Unify my promised land Unify my promised land Unify my promised land
