Lyrics Hunioco - Annie Haslam

Hunioco

Dawn light brings a tropic day above the trees
Old man gazing to the hills awaits
Proud boy, lion hearted, comes a hundred miles
Follow the sun, soon you’ll be welcomed home
Hunioco
They sing througout the land
The boy becomes a man
Now he may take his fathers hand
Hunioco
They sing througout the land
The boy becomes a man
Now he may take his fathers hand
Drums call, village voices ring around the shore
Rain falls as they cast their nets to sea
Young girls singing songs to bring the boy’s return
Look for the sun soon to be welcomed home
Hunioco
They sing througout the land
The boy becomes a man
Now he may take his fathers hand
Hunioco
They sing througout the land
The boy becomes a man
Now he may take his fathers hand
(African)
Night falls as the people gather round the fire
Young men in their festive roles will dance
Echoes from the hills repeat their loud rejoice
Follow the sun now he is welcome home
Hunioco
They sing througout the land
The boy becomes a man
Now he may take his fathers hand
(African Chorus)
Hunioco
They sing througout the land
The boy becomes a man
Now he may take his fathers hand
(African)
