The grass is high and the work is done
Send the sun to his sleeping place
Now well 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 well dance and make love beneath
The serengeti moon
The serengeti moon
The serengeti moon
