Stranger from the south coast,
Smiling at me,
Looking at me yet not seeing me.
Stranger from the south coast,
Smiling with me.
Him nodding to the rhythm in the air,
Me moving to the beats of his drum set.
Stranger from the south coast,
Dancing with me.
We feeling the flow of the music,
Me refreshing my soul,
Him expressing his heart.
Stranger from the south coast,
Smiling at me,
Looking at me
Yet not seeing me.
Stranger from the south coast
Looking at me.
The village drum boy
From the coast indeed.
