Snow over the Maluti

(Verse 1) Winter paints the mountains white, Crystal mornings, silver light, Boots on frost, the air so clean, A frozen dream in a mountain scene. High above the valleys wide, Where the eagles used to glide, Now skis carve lines through shining snow, In the land where cold winds blow. (Pre-Chorus) Feel the rush, the heartbeat fast, Every turn a spell you cast, Over ridges, down you fly, Touching clouds in the Basotho sky. (Chorus) Skiing in the highlands, wild and free, Snow over the Maluti calling me, Through icy winds and open air, Freedom lives up there. Skiing in the highlands, strong and bright, Dancing on the slopes of white, In the mountain kingdom’s glow, We ride the winter snow. (Verse 2) Blankets wrapped, the fire burns, Stories told as daylight turns, From frozen peaks to village cheer, Winter magic once a year. Boot tracks fading in the dusk, Breath like silver mountain musk, Stars above in velvet skies, Reflected in our shining eyes. (Pre-Chorus) Feel the chill, but feel alive, Where earth and sky together thrive, Every glide, a song untold, A highland heart in winter’s hold. (Chorus) Skiing in the highlands, wild and free, Snow over the Maluti calling me, Through icy winds and open air, Freedom lives up there. Skiing in the highlands, strong and bright, Dancing on the slopes of white, In the mountain kingdom’s glow, We ride the winter snow. (Bridge) From Afriski heights to distant plains, Snowflakes fall like soft refrains, Who would dream this southern land, Holds winter in its hand? (Final Chorus) Skiing in the highlands, bold and true, Under skies of endless blue, Mountain kingdom shining bright, Wrapped in winter light. (Outro) When spring returns and snow is gone, We’ll still hear winter’s song, For in our hearts the mountains stay, Calling us back someday.
