I light up the trees
in your remembrance
oh sweet rastafari..
I put on some classics
to ease my pain
I reminisce in all the times
we once shared together
I'm contemplating
I'm filled with hallucinations
the thoughts in my mind are forbidden
the burns on my hand
tells you about the real me
the scars on my body is my devotion to you
oh sweet rastafari..
.
(Nokuthula)
.
A partner and I.
Burning greens in your honour
as we blow out holy smoke
All in your name..
Oh sweet sweet 'tafari.
So naked we lay
, baring mind and soul.
Inhale and exhaling the
smoke with the pain
For it is you oh sweet Rastafari
who heals our souls,
gives us peace.
Give us light
, love and the greens
.
(Tumelo)
.
With clouds of smoke ascending from my lips like mist ascending from a valley
we ignore our surroundings
high on holy smoke
we sway our bodies to the sweet classics
oh sweet rastafari
we on some galactic high
only your greens can provide
Letting our memories together
mingle with the puffs of clouds
surrounding us
Bidding them goodbye as they
slowly dissipate into thin air
as if they never existed
