Ibeyi is a French (with Cuban, Venezuelan and Tunisian origins) musical duo consisting of twin sisters Lisa-Kaindé Diaz and Naomi Diaz.

Lisa, the lead singer, plays the piano; Naomi plays the traditional Peruvian/Cuban percussion instruments cajón and Batá drum.

You were born under a star
In the sky she lives now
Protecting you, night after night
Listen to the lullaby
Every time life seems to hurt
Close your eyes
Just close your eyes

Our voices will hug you
Music will be our arms
The star will shine
And enlighten your night
You are loved little girl, you are
I bet you'll be stronger
When the day is back

Waye waye lo mio, waye kalamefa
Waye waye lo mio, waye kalamefa
Waye kalamefa aremu
Waye kalamefao

If one day you wanna cry
Look at the star, I know she's proud
Of who you've been and who you are
Then run into loving arms
And shine as bright as you can
You've been loved, you still are

Our voices will hug you
Music will be our arms
The star will shine
And enlighten your night
You are loved little girl, you are
I bet you'll be stronger
When the day is back

Waye waye lo mio, waye kalamefa
Waye waye lo mio, waye kalamefa
Waye kalamefa aremu
Waye kalamefao
Waye waye lo mio, waye kalamefa
Waye waye lo mio, waye kalamefa
Waye kalamefa aremu
Waye kalamefeao
