[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Sun climbs over mountain high (Zora, zora!)
Wakes the village, clear the sky
Rooster crows, the day's begun
Grab your boots and start to run!
Fields are green, the air is sweet
Hear the drum's insistent b**t
Gather round, both young and old
Stories waiting to be told!
[Chorus]
Hey! Lero lero lay! (Hey! Lero lero lay!)
Feet are pounding, hearts are gay!
Spin the circle, hold on tight!
Dancing hard from morn 'til night!
Brass is blazing, fiddle sings!
Joy the golden morning brings!
Hey! Lero lero lay! (Hey! Lero lero lay!)
Dance the worries all away!
[Verse 2]
Grandpa taps his weathered shoe
Granny winks, she knows it too
The rhythm calls, it pulls you near
Forget the weight, forget the fear!
Shawls are flying, colours bright
Under the warm and welcome light
Stomp the earth, let voices soar
Like eagles flying evermore!
[Chorus]
Hey! Lero lero lay! (Hey! Lero lero lay!)
Feet are pounding, hearts are gay!
Spin the circle, hold on tight!
Dancing hard from morn 'til night!
Brass is blazing, fiddle sings!
Joy the golden morning brings!
Hey! Lero lero lay! (Hey! Lero lero lay!)
Dance the worries all away!
[Bridge]
Faster now, the tempo flies!
See the sparkle in their eyes!
Tradition strong, a living stream
Fulfilling every hopeful dream!
Hand in hand, a chain we make
For friendship's and for kinship's sake!
The earth itself begins to sway
To greet the bright and brand new day!
[Chorus]
Hey! Lero lero lay! (Hey! Lero lero lay!)
Feet are pounding, hearts are gay!
Spin the circle, hold on tight!
Dancing hard from morn 'til night!
Brass is blazing, fiddle sings!
Joy the golden morning brings!
Hey! Lero lero lay! (Hey! Lero lero lay!)
Dance the worries all away!
