Helmut Lotti - Minapendawe lyrics

Minapendawe Minapendawe Minapendawe
Minapendawe
Minapendawe Minapendawe Minapendawe
Minapendawe

Minapendawe has nothing to eat
Minapendawe hardly stands on her feet
Still she keeps going on drying
Out under the burning sun

Searching food to survive to
Keep her children alive
Will she find it in time
Or will the desert just
Take another life away

Will she get through the day
Oh, does she know how to fight
When there is nothing to win
Only the night and then the struggle again
Is there a way to maybe
Give her a little thing her life

Minapendawe Minapendawe Minapendawe
Minapendawe
Minapendawe Minapendawe Minapendawe
Minapendawe

Minapendawe has nothing to eat
Minapendawe hardly stands on her feet
She remembers the time
Fruit was juicy 'cause nature was kind
When they had to run away
Life got harder every day
Bones now bleach in the sun
So many people she loved and so
Much hope that is gone but she must go on

Oh, does she know how to fight
When there is nothing to win
Only the night and then the struggle again
Is there a way to maybe
Give her a little thing

Oh, does she know how to fight
When there is nothing to win
Only the night and then the struggle again
Is there a way someone can help today
And maybe change just a little thing
Her life
