The Sadhana Boat Song

Work all day on a drop of love
Daylight come and me wanna plant trees
Sweat like a pig and elbow grease
Daylight come and me wanna plant trees

Hey you kitchen team
Cook me something tasty
Daylight come and me wanna plant trees
Biggin up the hygiene team
Keepin’ our bums clean
Daylight come and me wanna plant trees

Chorus:
Day oh, day oh
Me say day, me say day me say day oh
Me wanna plant trees

Me got yoga, capoeira and African dance
Daylight come and me wanna plant trees
Drums, flutes and bonfire chants
Daylight come and me feel at ease (peace, peace, peace)

Me got dogs, cats, mosquito and rats
Daylight come and me wanna plant trees
Me got neem trees, mango trees, chilli and banana
Daylight come and me wanna plant trees (eat cheese! Oops)

Chorus

Bunding, mumpteeing, shout out to the forest team
Daylight come and me wanna plant trees
Vetiver everywhere, even in my underwear
Daylight come and me wanna plant trees

I’m in a dream, wake up team, get me up and going
Daylight come and me wanna plant trees
Cycling to the village on a ya ya ya yatra
Daylight come and me wanna plant trees

Chorus

Got a moment of silence
Eco dome, my second home, gets me nice and muddy
Daylight come and me wanna plant trees

We are happy, got energy, we’re sadhana people
Daylight come and me wanna plant trees
Look after mother earth, she really deserves
Daylight come and me wanna plant trees
Daylight come and we find our way home
