Naïram - Baharally Singh Lyrics

Your love was so big
Your love was too big
You were sick
You had a wife
You took your life
You took your life
The life you gave
The life you took
The lives you stole
The lives you stole
Your name
Your pain
Your name
Your shame
Your blame
I know your name
The place
The colour of your face
Your size 3 shoes
Your outcast blues
Your name
The place
The colour of your face
Your size 3 shoes
Your outcast blues
Edith, Joseph
Vernon, Babs
I say your names
My history
My legacy
Our history
Our legacy
Love and lies
Love survives
Like the phoenix
From the ashes
We emerge hopeful
Defiant
Free
From nowhere
From nothing
Then the rain
A little rain
Is soon a monsoon
Drops turn to trickle
To stream to river
Into the Potaro
To the mighty Kaieteur
Waterfall
Water falls
To the Essequibo
To your Demerara, Sugar
We find relief
We find relief
In a river of tears
A cascade of grief
We find relief
We find release
