Lyrics

Lifeless body of the dead was taken from the crypt So the soul would walk the earth together with the kin Malagasy hands are holding a corpse wrapped in silk shrouds peoples is more and more The sun has fell and the darkness is coming When the dead are on the run music starts the play this is our life This is our way respecting the dead Famadihana Turning of the bones Famadihana Beneath the setting sun Famadihana The dance with the corpse Famadihana Let dead spirits come Decomposed corpse dances, dressed in rotten cloth Held by black hands of the living And the spirit comes forth! All families of deceased blind Drinks and rejoice Terrific again starts This is Famadihana Famadihana
