Heart of the Dancer

Heart Of The Dancer - Johnny Clegg/Juluka/Sipho Mchunu

I want to look into the heart

Of the dancer

His movements have a magic mystery

They must have

A message and a meaning

'Cause he's doing something to me

Please don't let the drum

Stop beating

I have to understand

How he dances

Our future and our destiny

And how we became

Part of this land

Sizodlala nani 'mabungu

Sizodlala nani 'mabungu

Sizodlala nani 'mabungu

Sizodlala nani 'mabungu

Sizodlala nani 'mabungu

Sizodlala nani 'mabungu

I want to look into the heart

Of the dancer

Look into the heart

Of the dancer

When you were just a

Witless child of wonder

He showed you the glory of his past

He weaved for you a dance

Of the thunder

That shook the mountains

And the craglands

He dances the children

Playing in the rubble

He dances the hollow victory

He dances the powerful

People

Ambushed by history

Sizodlala nani 'mabungu

Sizodlala nani 'mabungu

Sizodlala nani 'mabungu

I want to look into the heart

Of the dancer

Look into the heart

Of the dancer

The dance wants to dance

The dancer

But the dancer wants

To dance the dance

There's a war between

The puppet

And the master

Between the master

And the puppet dancer's heart

Have you seen the gunfire

Flash across the news in

The night

Have you seen the bedroom

Scene in the ballet

Oh the dancing bear can't bear

To dance much longer

Soon the puppet will

Be the dance's master

Soon the puppet will be

The dance's master

I want to look into the heart

Of the dancer

Look into the heart
