Serengeti Moon

Dan Fogelberg · Other Songs - Dan Fogelberg

The grass is high and the work is done

Send the sun to his sleeping place

Now we'll dance and make love

Beneath the serengeti moon



The gods are laughing their twinkling eyes

Shine on us in the clear night sky

Take my hand, let us walk

Beneath the serengeti moon



Oh, let the music play

"listen to the melody" mamalang melodia yalla

Fill your heart with joy and mirth

"let your hearts rejoice" thabishing pelo tsa lona

Oh, let the rain clouds come

"listen to the melody" mameland melodie yalla

Spill their life upon this earth



Oh, let the music play

"listen to the melody" mamalang melodia yalla

Fill your heart with joy and mirth

"let your hearts rejoice" thabishing pelo tsa lona

Oh, let the rain clouds come

"listen to the melody" mameland melodie yalla

Spill their life upon this earth

The grass is high and the work is done

Send the sun to his sleeping place

Now we'll dance and make love beneath

The serengeti moon

The serengeti moon

The serengeti moon

Serengeti Moon
