(Lyrics by James Seals; music by James Seals & Dash Crofts, 1971)
|
Oh hummingbird, mankind was waiting for you to come flying along.
|
Heavenly songbird, we were so wrong. We've harmed you.
|
Oh hummingbird, lend us your wings. Let us soar in the atmosphere of Abha.
|
Lift us up to the heaven of holiness, oh source of our being, oh hummingbird.
|
|
Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away. Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away.
|
In you I've found a fragrance. I'll love you 'til I die.
|
I just love you, love you, love you. I don't even know the reason why.
|
Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away. Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away.
|
The sweetness of your nectar has drawn me like a fly.
|
I just love you, love you, love you. I don't even know the reason why. Now,
|
Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away. Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away.
|
|
Haven't you noticed the days somehow keep getting longer?
|
And the spirit voices whisper in us all.
|
Haven't you noticed the rays? The spirit sun in stronger
|
And a new day is dawning for us all.
|
|
Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away. Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away.
|
Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away. Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away.
|
The draught of understanding; wisdom, peace and love is ours.
|
Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away. Hummingbird don't fly away, fly away.
