Roobaroo

Lyric Translation:

Dude ...
Just now I did believe
that I have a fire inside me somewhere
It's a new morning and I am aflame
I just swallowed (overpowered) the sun
I'm face to face with light
the dream that was lost
it's found, and it's blossoming
It was (solid) iron, but now it has melted,
it's stretched, and has become stubborn
it has transformed into a sitar
I'm face to face with light
The fog has cleared and my sky is open now
I have a new path and new journey to start
If you can be my traveling companion
see me in the eye ...
My flame is fighting with storms
My flame is now moving ahead like bright torches
I don't care if I disappear without a trace
I care not whether this caravan exists or not
I have drank in the lights
I am radiant and alive
Why keep suffering?
I'm face to face with light.
Dude, Dude, Dude ...
