Shadowland

Music by Lebo M and Hans Zimmer
Lyrics by Lebo M and Mark Mancina
Performed by Heather Headley and Chorus


Fatshe leso lea halalela (Our land is holy)
Fatshe leso lea halalela (Our land is holy)

Shadowland
The leaves have fallen
This shadowed land
This was our home
The river's dry
The ground has broken
So I must go
Now I must go

And where the journey may lead me
Let your prayers be my guide
I cannot stay here, my family
But I'll remember my pride

Prideland
My land
Tear-stained
Dry land
Take this with you
Fatshe leso
I have no choice
I will find my way
Lea halalela
Take this prayer
What lies out there
Lea halalela

And where the journey may lead you
Let this prayer be your guide
Though it may take you so far away
Always remember your pride

Fatshe leso lea halalela (Our land is holy)
Fatshe leso lea halalela (Our land is holy)

And where the journey may lead you
Let this prayer be your guide
Though it may take you so far away
Always remember your pride
And where the journey may lead me
Let this prayer be my guide
Though it may take me so far away
I'll remember my pride
And where the journey may lead you
Let this prayer be your guide
Though it may take you so far away
Always remember your pride
Giza buyabo, giza buyabo
I will return, I will return, beso bo
Giza buyabo, I will return
Giza buyabo, oh giza buyabo
 Beso bo, my people, beso bo
