Ilia
Gone is the man
Who loved his land
More than day
If his heart had to leave
His soul was to stay
Hear them calling
From the mountains
Calling from the plains
Hear the wind
Through the leaves
Singing lonely refrains
Banza banza banza banza ixiámi
Ixiámi muá ngola
Ngolo banza Ngolo banza oh kima
Uá nguivila ngo mueniomo
Ni ji pangue já kuteka
Kuilatata uá mudié zé-zé
Mukonda diá nzó

Kalunga ngumba uá mambata

Pray for the man
Who left his land
Aching for better days
A man whos heart s
Bound to bleed
For the ones who remain
Uá nguivila ngo mueniomo
A mu tele oh ndo
Muloji mala kua muxima
Kua mu jia
Muene u diene
Mu ixié iá muxima kifussa
