Wailing Souls - Ishen Tree

I have a little ishen tree
Yes, I have a little ishen tree
Nothing would it bear for me
But a stalk of sensemilla
Nothing but a stalk of sensemilla

So I nourish it and I cherish it
Until it come to perfection
I build a spliff and take a lift
Oh, I just couldn't resist it
It was a stalk of sensemilla
Nothing but a stalk of sensemilla

So we have have a little ishen tree
Yes, we have a little ishen tree
And nothing would it bear for me
But a stalk of sensemilla
Yes, it was a stalk of sensemilla

It was founded upon the grave of Solomon
Nations after nation
They want to know how it come
But we know it for the healing of the nation
It was a stalk of sensemilla
Yes, it was a stalk of sensemilla

So I have a little ishen tree
I have a little ishen tree
And nothing would it bear for me
But a stalk of sensemilla
Nothing but a stalk of sensemilla
Yeah

(..)

Yes, I have a little ishen tree
Yes, I have a little ishen tree
Nothing would it bear for me
But a stalk of sensemilla
Nothing but a stalk of sensemilla

So I nourish it and I cherish it
Until it come to perfection
I build a spliff, I take a lift
Oh, I just couldn't resist it
It was a stalk of sensemilla
Yes, it just a stalk of sensemilla

Yes, I have a little ishen tree
Yes, I have a little ishen tree
And nothing would it bear for me
But a stalk of sensemilla, yes
A stalk of sensemilla

Have a little ishen tree...
Have a little ishen tree...
And nothing would it bear for me
But a stalk of sensemilla
Nothing but a stalk of sensemilla

Have a little ishen tree...
Have a little ishen tree...
