The wind blows the palms
he was torn from your arms
and he sailed away
the sun burns the sand
you can still feel his hand
as you heard him say
in the words of the islands
I'll return one day.
Kara
Kara
Kara Kimbiay
the stars will guide ma on my way
Kara
Kara
Kara Kimbiay
Kara
Kara wait for me
when I return across the sea
Kara
Kara
I'll be back to stay.
The sun disappears
and the sky's not so clear
as he sailed away
the life that you lead's
not the life that you need
you still hear her say
your words are the words
you will hear while you're away.
Kara
Kara...
Where the sea and the sand
wash together
you hope to spend your lives for ever
where the sun meets the moon
you'll be together
together again very soon.
Kara
Kara...
There's a light on the sea
and the wind blows the trees
and he's on his way
as you run through the sand
you can hear him say
Kimbiay
Kimbiay
I've come back today.
