the exhale of a dampened mist disperses from his lips,
he floats freely towards his anointed position
unity with her clouds anew
ignited, fertility dances amid the skies
Mbende Jerusarema begins
the birthing of a fierce delicacy
all look up and bear witness to the flirting air!
nature’s saintly cycle has destined this time of labour;
where her weightless white womb sings and trills
for moist tongues desire water,
and their dry egos crave seas
rejoice!
for the waves of serenity have began their flow
at last the heavenly rain pours down into those yearning lips
truly the greatest gift to those
who have longed for the delicate taste
of the river of benevolence
