הפרויקט של עידן רייכל Maisha song lyrics

Alone and listening to the light of the moon

An orphaned child cried to the shadows

Alone and listening to the light of the moon

Maisha prayed for someone to save her

She'd wandered for so very far

That she no longer knew her way home

The whole world knows her story

But no one knows her name

Moon, if you are there

Return so that she might be comforted

Moon, if you are there

Return so that she can sleep

Moon, if you are there

Return so that she might be comforted

Moon, if you are there

I am begging for Maisha

Return for Maisha

Maisha is a girl's name in Swahili, but also means "life". This song is dedicated to the child soldiers in Northern Uganda.
