The Volcano
The rock of burning breathing
Today it belches smoke
Sometimes it spits it's fire
And ashes all around
We pray Great Rock don't harm us
Let tranquillity reign all around
We bring our offerings to you
Please give us peace this day
Today it belches smoke
Sometimes it spits it's fire
And ashes all around
We pray Great Rock don't harm us
Let tranquillity reign all around
We bring our offerings to you
Please give us peace this day
