Honeymoon

(Song: Rise one blood one life) This is my honeymoon The day I dreamed of ngath whom I love In the year of yang de miir The age of calamity Under the shade of that tree Yes, that tree We fell in love Ngath has moony eyes They sparkle like the rays of the sun in June Our love was the tale Told to new lovers on no sale Her speech is not illusive She sends a tremor down the spines of men I perceive a bright light Naturally charged like the skirts of fireflies Today is a dawn to you my love Zeal to your father dengdit The girl denied education The girl who refused a hundred heads of cattle For she promised to shower me With a river of kisses mwah mwah My star, my queen Wife of bany e koc theer My wife, I, the paramount chief I smell the aroma of my homeland The land of ngath my mother From which I chose ngath my lover I hail you my homeland South Sudan Hold your children in your arms like a chicken and her brood You are not barren my homeland You have great and strong children Give them the love that I give ngath The dose that I give ngath my love She sat at that corner When the sun sunk She had dried cow dung She had milked cows She had cooked walwal She sang in her sweetest voice She is there, yes she is the one Ngath my love I love you like walwal I will marry you and cook tortoise eggs for you I swear I shall not bring you chapatti Better colostrum for your strength To manage carry a pot of water from the well Your husband has come for you forever Rise my love Oh she wants me to sing the song I sang to her (Song: You brighten up my life you are my shining star baby girl you are my shine You spice up my life, spice of my life You spice up my life My love of my life I feel even afar Open my heart ajar You are my love don't you see Baby girl you are my shine You spice up my life Spice of my life You spice up my life) You owe me my life As if you created it I gave you the key to my heart The last day a storm swept across our homestead The day we parted The day we have met again It is today and forever more We shall not part I will hold your hand daily Take my hand forever Thank you for your endless love
