Lyrics
Sahara Rising
Verse 1
Sahara aleila x 2 (Arabic) (Desert night)
Chorus 1
She endures zero love from the rain God.
Oh she is rising up from the blazing sand.
Red petals are open into flaming rods.
Humanity wakes up and takes command.
Verse 2
Disgar vedi hop x 4 (Ready for love)
Da lem mustad x 4 (I am ready)
Chorus 2
She is a miracle sown by a higher power.
Showing us our pain is our fermentation.
A hidden river to be discovered.
We will become our imagination. Repeat Chorus.
