Lyrics:

Now that those days are gone
I will spend each day with only
joy in my heart
Through many times I’ve cried
I’ll always find the strength
to wipe the tears
From my eyes

I remember those days
I prayed to come home
And I know that someday I’d be here

Memories of days gone by
When I felt so alone
In the end all that matters is I’m home

Homeland
Ngai nazongi I
Mboka na ngai
Po na seko

Homeland
Ngai nazongi I
Mboka na ngai
Kino liwa

If you ever feel this way
Think about my story how
it came to play
My heart is beating fast
Finally today
Now at last I’m home

Now that those days are gone
I will spend each day with only
joy in my heart
Through many times I’ve cried
I’ll always find the strength
to wipe the tears
From my eyes

I remember those days
I prayed to come home
And I know that someday I’d be here

Memories of days gone by
When I felt so alone
In the end all that matters is I’m home

Homeland
Ngai nazongi I
Mboka na ngai
Po na seko

Homeland
Ngai nazongi I
Mboka na ngai
Kino liwa
