What More Could Be Right
Letta Mbulu Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ending the day
Little hands creep into mine
We kneel down to pray
Will I have?
Shall I be?
I hear them pray
Hush my child
Come to me
And hear my saying
Don't you know he held the Sun
Each morning
And then the moon at night
There is the air to breathe by
Now what more could be right?
Trees give shade to cool you
And pretty birds so sweet
The sea and sky coloured so blue
Again I ask now what more could be right?
I have you, you have me
We have love don't you see?
Just be sweet and be true
And the whole world will always love you
Now go to sleep my loved ones
And kiss then out the light
Remember all that I've told you
Again I ask now what more could be right?
Again I ask now what more could be right?
Jing, jing, jing, jing
Jing, jing, jing, jing, jing, jing jing
Jing, jing, jing, jing, jing, jing jing, jing, jing jing
Jing, jing, jing, jing
Jing, jing, jing, jing, jing, jing
I have you, you have me
We have love don't you see?
Just be sweet and be true
Then the whole world will always love you
Now go to sleep my loved ones
And kiss then out the light
Remember all that I've told you
Again I ask now what more could be right?
Oh jing, jing, jing, jing
Jing, jing, jing, jing, jing, jing jing
Jing, jing, jing, jing, jing, jing jing, jing, jing jing
Jing, jing, jing, jing
Jing, jing, jing, jing, jing, jing
Jing, jing, jing, jing
Jing, jing, jing, jing, jing, jing jing

In the evening when the night falls
As the day ends and darkness creeps in
Little hands creep into mine
Children come to hold my hand
We kneel down to pray
We take a moment to talk to God
Will I have?
I wonder if I will possess what I desire
Shall I be?
I am uncertain if I will become who I want to be
I hear them pray
I listen to their words to God
Hush my child
Be quiet, my dear
Come to me
Come close to me
And hear my saying
Listen to me carefully
Don't you know he held the Sun
Do you not realize God created the universe
Each morning
Every day
And then the moon at night
And the moon during the night
There is the air to breathe by
There's air to fill our lungs
Now what more could be right?
What else could be better?
Trees give shade to cool you
Trees offer cool places to rest
And pretty birds so sweet
Birds sing beautiful melodies
The sea and sky coloured so blue
The sky and sea display beautiful shades of blue
Again I ask now what more could be right?
Once again, what else could be better?
I have you, you have me
We have each other
We have love don't you see?
We share love, is it not clear?
Just be sweet and be true
Be kind and stay honest
And the whole world will always love you
The world will love you unconditionally
Now go to sleep my loved ones
It's time for you to sleep, my dears
And kiss then out the light
Give me a kiss goodnight before you drift off to sleep
Remember all that I've told you
Recall all the things I've said to you
Oh jing, jing, jing, jing
A repetition of sounds indicating joyfulness or celebration
