Lyric discussion by trippinbtm 

could be about spiritually being lost. we're homeless in our world, just moonlight sleeping on a midnight lake (mere reflections of our true selves). People dying all the time, could be us next time. Saying hello, crying goodbye (birth and death).

Hard to say since I don't know what the Zulu parts say. Maybe it was just about an actual event Paul knew of, winds in africa making the villagers homeless. Maybe it's the political turmoil and wars and poverty africa suffers that is the wind killing and making people homeless.
