(Ayy, yoh)
Leonisa, my heart is calling
Where are you, my daughter?
Daddy is waiting, oh
The sun is setting on the Copperbelt today
I look for your shadow in every single way
Leonisa, my child, my joy, my shining star
I wonder if you're near or if you've traveled far
The house feels empty, silent as the night
I just want to see you, to make everything right
Leonisa, Leonisa, where are you?
My daughter, I'm searching, I'm missing you
Leonisa, come home to the arms that love you so
You're the precious seed that I watched grow
Yeah, Leonisa, my heartbeat, where have you gone?
Waiting for the break of a brand new dawn
I remember the laughter, the running in the yard
Without you here, this life is feeling quite hard
Leonisa, mwana wandi, my beauty, my pride
There's nowhere on this earth where I wouldn't hide
To find you, to bring you back to this place
I'm longing just to look upon your lovely face
Leonisa, Leonisa, where are you?
My daughter, I'm searching, I'm missing you
Leonisa, come home to the arms that love you so
You're the precious seed that I watched grow
Yeah, Leonisa, my heartbeat, where have you gone?
Waiting for the break of a brand new dawn
Wherever you are, just know that I care
My love for you, Leonisa, is always there
Through the valleys, through the Zambezi rain
I'll call your name until I'm whole again
So if you hear this melody across the land
Know that your father reaches out his hand
Leonisa, please come back to your home
No more wandering, no more need to roam
I'm here waiting, with the door open wide
With all of my love held deep inside
Leonisa, Leonisa, where are you?
My daughter, I'm searching, I'm missing you
Leonisa, come home to the arms that love you so
You're the precious seed that I watched grow
Yeah, Leonisa, my heartbeat, where have you gone?
Waiting for the break of a brand new dawn
Leonisa, come back home, oh
My daughter, my heart, my everything
(Ayy)
I'm still waiting, Leonisa
Just come back home to me
(Yoh)
