The spirit of the dead...

According to the animist belief ,
the dead relive,
Only faith in christ,
Gives the certainty,
Of an immortal rebirth.

Listen to the wind
the meaning bush
it's the breath of the ancestors...
Those who died
never left us

They are in the thickening shadow,
they are in the shaking tree,
they are in the running water,
they are in the hut,
the dead are not dead!
They are in the woman's womb,
they are in the infant's wail,
and in the flaming brand,
they are in the dying fire,
they are in the weeping grass,
They are in the forest,
they are in the hut...
the dead are not dead.
