Gently
Click to see the original lyrics (Ewe)
It's gently, it’s gently
It’s gently you’ll arrive safely home (Ancestral World)
It’s gently you’ll arrive safely home (Ancestral World)
Gently
It’s gently but steadily; the Leopard does not make haste
It’s gently, gently; the Leopard does not make haste
The animal with a tail does not jump over fires
Gently
In Mawu’s hands we are; only He understands our deepest worries
In the Creator’s Hands we are; only He understands our deepest worries
Let us be wary, let us pray
Let us be wary, let us pray
Even long life cannot escape the Ancestral World (the Afterlife)
Even long life cannot escape the Ancestral World (the Afterlife)
It’s gently you’ll arrive safely home (Ancestral World)
It’s gently you’ll arrive safely home (Ancestral World)
Gently.
