Away from my traditional home
I am a wondering soul
Left the land of my ancestors
With no roots and traditions to hold
Do I belong here?
My eyes and hair do not say so
I cannot be them
I cannot be me
In this land
I do not feel whole
What I left
I do not know
What is left for me
I cannot hold
Return to my roots
Is an urge of the soul
To do this I need courage untold
Feel stranded in this whole wide world
