I am an old, old melody.
I am what has been sung before.
And in this I can see, I can see
The heart of all, the spirit born
Upon the soul of all.

Lai da dai…
I am an old, old melody.

I carried you across the sea
I was there when you most needed me
When you were suffering under heavy loads,
I am an old, old melody.

And of the love you feel you lost
Way back before the anger started
And of the love you feel you lost
Deep within your family line,

Oh I’ve been here, and I’ve been growing,
Waiting for a time when I could be free.
Waiting for this time to come,
This time when I, I can be free.

I carry the heart of your ancestors
I carry it deep inside your bones
Oh yes, they’re here, when you start to sing.
Oh yes, they’re here, surrounding.

And though you don’t know how they were
And whether they ever did great things,
You know this, that when they sang,
They were part of everything.

You know this, that when they sing,
They are a part of everything.

I am an old, old melody.
I am an old, old melody.
