Alone and listening to the light of the moon
An orphaned child cried to the shadows
Alone and listening to the light of the moon
Maisha prayed for someone to save her
She'd wandered for so very far
That she no longer knew her way home
The whole world knows her story
But no one knows her name

Moon, if you are there
Return so that she might be comforted
Moon, if you are there
Return so that she can sleep
Moon, if you are there
Return so that she might be comforted
Moon, if you are there
I am begging for Maisha
Return for Maisha
