Miles

You’ve made me feel at peace 
Your eyes make me light
Like I’m floating through reality
Your soul is beautiful
Your smile is precious
You bring my tears to my eyes
I love you with heart and soul
I pray that you have a content life
That your work makes you happy
I pray you touch souls the way you have grasped my heart
To give love and receive fully
I love you

Miles

The song is about counsel given from an elder advising their children and grand children to not get lost in the woods and to know how to find their way back to the village homestead. The woods in our modern context is the city and we're tasked with remembering where home is. By home I mean home, home. Ni songo gela is Venda for 'don't get lost or don't lose your way'.
