The cheetah runs to meet you,
Zambezi moon,
The giraffe reaches for a kiss,
The elephant heralds your presence,
Zambezi moon.
The baboon tells you his story,
The lion bows down to you,
Zambezi moon,
The owl winks at your brilliance,
The nagaapie keeps you company,
Zambezi moon,
The gazelle yearns to leap over you,
The crocodile cries tears of love for you,
Zambezi moon,
The springbok dances in your light,
The black man smiles at you,
Zambezi moon,
The water thunders in your honour,
And I weep for your absence,
