" from the album "By M'Bilia Bel
The sun gives warmth
And it’s also the light of the world
The sun, water, moon, stars, wind and soil
This is life for man
Nadina yoo Nadina yoyo
Nadina yoo Nadina yoyo
Let’s pray to God our father yoyo
To forgive our sins mother
Even if you are sinful, save your soul
Even if you belong to the devil, know who created you
Let’s praise God our father ee ee
Even once a week
Fish, animals, plants, insects
Or even the birds, this is life for man
Molded clay
Burnt leaves
Or all others you love ee
That are too many to name
Nadina yoo Nadina yoyo
Nadina yoo Nadina yoyo
Let’s pray to God our father yoyo
To forgive our sins mother
Even if you are sinful, save your soul
Even if you belong to the devil, know who created you
Let’s praise God our father ee ee
Even once a week
Fish, animals, plants, insects
Or even the birds, this is life for man
Molded clay
Burnt leaves
Or all others you love ee
That are too many to name
Molded clay
Burnt leaves
Or all others you love ee
That are too many to name
Nadina yo Nadina mother
Slow down your restless body and soul mother
Here I am, knocking in vain
Yee yee oh Nadina yee yee
Give me all your love ye yee
Yee yee oh Nadina yee yee
Oh, Nadina dear

ReplyDeleteLove the song though I didn't know what it was saying.
This has been a favorite song ever since I heard it blasting through the market in Malawi in 1997. What beautiful lyrics! Also amazing is how the language has a similar shape to other faraway Bantu languages.
