The Namibia Divining Song

Liquid Find

(Verse 1)

In the heart of the desert, where the rivers don’t run, Underneath Namibia’s burning sun, With a rod in my hand and the pulse of the earth, I’m chasing the water, I’m finding its worth.

(Pre-Chorus)

The skeptics laugh, but I don’t mind, There’s a force in this land that’s hard to find. When the rod starts to tremble, I feel it clear, The water’s calling, it’s pulling me near!

(Chorus)

In the sands of Namibia, I’ll find the flow, Where the rivers are hidden and the dry winds blow. With a rod in my hand and the desert sky, I’ll bring the life where the land is dry!

(Verse 2)

From the red dunes of Sossus to Etosha’s plains, They say it’s hopeless, they say it’s insane. But I feel the current, the life underground, With every step, I’m water-bound.

(Pre-Chorus)

The wind might howl, and the skies may tease, But I’m locked on, I know what the earth needs. My rod’s not magic, it’s a language untold, A silent promise the desert holds.

(Chorus)

In the sands of Namibia, I’ll find the flow, Where the rivers are hidden and the dry winds blow. With a rod in my hand and the desert sky, I’ll bring the life where the land is dry!

(Bridge)

It’s not the power of science, nor the trick of the mind, It’s a rhythm, a dance with the ancient kind. Where the mountains sigh and the valleys weep, I find the water in the silence deep. Oh, I’m the seeker, the one they call, When the rivers are silent, and the rains won’t fall.

(Chorus)

In the sands of Namibia, I’ll find the flow, Where the rivers are hidden and the dry winds blow. With a rod in my hand and the desert sky, I’ll bring the life where the land is dry!

(Outro)

So if the land is thirsty, and hope runs dry, Look for me under the Namibian sky. With a rod in hand and the earth as my friend, I’ll find the water, ‘cause I know where it bends.
