Lyrics The Day the Sun Came - Raashan Ahmad, Keren Ann

The Day the Sun Came

I was walking through the open plain
In the silver lining of a burning flame
You empower me like a fast train
When suddenly you called through the rain
Did you hear me call your name?
I called your name…
The day the sun came
You finally left
I hate the «goodbye»
The day the sun came
You needed to fly
No more seeing your heartless heavens now
And my smile left with your heartbeat, mamma angel
Fixer of scars, queen of song
And laughter to make 4 walls home
And then from breast to bone no matter what was shown
You fought through a smile and strength and prayer
And fear and tear and courage and worry
And weight loss and doctor’s words
Make your mother as comfortable as possible
Rainfall, took hand in mine, breath slowing down
Welcome ancestors into the room
The sun came…
I was walking through the open plain
In the silver lining of a burning flame
You empower me like a fast train
When suddenly you called through the rain
Did you hear me call your name?
I called your name…
The day the sun came
You’re finally here
I love the «hello»
The day the sun came
I started to grow
And barely for months becoming of this world
For spirit and thought, your heart uncurled
With love and joy, she pushed, she was
You are life, birth
Giver of new eyes, baby boys, crazy joy
Who knew how much love hearts could hold?
And you?
Me?
She?
Grandparents?
Africa?
Earth and we, stars, all there is and was and will be
Thank you for what you’ve shown me
Know that your existence has saved your father’s life
And unlocked magic in this world
Son
I called your name
I called your name
You empower me like a fast train
I called your name
I called your name
The day the sun came
