Stomes In Africa
Enya Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Cá fhad é ó
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

Overall Meaning

The Irish lyrics of "Storms in Africa" by Enya speaks about facing challenges and keeping a brave face in the midst of a storm. The singer addresses the listener, asking them where they have been and urges them to walk through stormy weather. She repeats the phrase "Cá fhad é ó" which roughly translates to "how long has it been?"


The chorus encourages the listener to "lift up your heart" and continue on their journey through the storms, while the verses describe the long and difficult road ahead. The singer describes the journey as a "big trip," and tells the listener to persevere and overcome their struggles.


Overall, the lyrics seem to be a metaphor for life's challenges and the need to stay strong and brave in the face of hardships. The stormy weather represents obstacles that we all face, but with determination, a strong heart, and perseverance, we can weather any storm and come out on the other side.

Though I walk through
Warm sands in Africa
Winds will grow soon
To storms in Africa.
How far to go
I cannot say.
How many more
Will journey this way?
Dark skies fall on
Black earth and ivory.
Far from your sun
Clouds now close over me.
How far to go
I cannot say.
How many more
Will journey this way?
Storms have come!
Rains wash the earth away
Dark skies fall down
Into another day.
Rains have now come
From storms in Africa
Time will go on
Through Storms in Africa

There are no artists whose music and style I truly say are in a class of their very own. Enya is the exception. Her music and her essence is etheral, calming, peaceful like none Ive ever heard or seen. Ever.
