If you didn't come here via the previous page (i.e., through a Webring or a search), you might want to know what my song drawings are all about; read about them here.
Storms in Africa
This song didn't really sound much like a storm to me; actually, when it came on, I hadn't looked at the title yet and wasn't sure which song this was when I began drawing. In the middle of the drawing, in blue, are the bells I heard, which had a very clear, far-reaching sound to them. I began to draw the mountains and valleys that this sound would reach to. It also had some drums, like a tribal land of sorts, which was drawn there. The red string tying it together was sort of a symbol of togetherness, of happiness in the music that was being played. It was a very bright, sort of happy song, which was why I had chosen the pink paper.
Storms in Africa--lyrics
Cá fhad é ó
Siúl tríd na stoirmeacha.
Dul tríd na stoirmeacha.
Cá fhad é ó
An tús don stoirm.
Cá fhad é ó
An tús go deireadh.
Tóg do Chroí.
Siúl tríd na stoirmeacha.
Tóg do chroísa.
Dul tríd na stoirmeacha.
Turas mór.
Tor tríd na Stoirmeacha.
Turas fada.
Amharc tríd na Stoirmeacha.
(Translated from Irish Gaelic:)
How long is it since
How long is it since
Walk through the storms
Go through the storms
How long is it since
The start of the storm
How long is it
From beginning to end
Lift your heart
Walk through the storms
Lift your heart!
Go through the storms
Great Journey
Heavy, through the storms
Long Journey
Look through the storms
