beautiful song! Thank you

[Ebenita]

my best friend got married with this song.. its absolutely beautiful...

[TheMaraozao]

OK. I know some better performances of the song, but I THANK YOU VERY MUCH for the lyrics and translation of initial part. I had it formerly (both lyrics and translation), but I don´t know how I lost or kept it "somewhere". Well, I became old, lol... I heard this song for the 1st time, you know, some 35 years ago!!! I have it in vinil disc by Makeba and heard it now here by Fadhili. THANKS TO YOU ALL FOR SOME HELP!

Malaika nakupenda malakika.x2

(Angel i love you angel)

Nami nifanyeje,kijana mwenzio,

(what do i do,your youth

Nashindwa na mali sina wee

( i can't and i dont have wealth)

Ningekuoa malaika

(i would have married you angel)

[matonnie]

@derisa71 good job

[sensei570]

@tribadorimtb the gist of the song is a poor guy in love with a beautiful girl but cannot afford the customery bride price. Nakupenda Malaika means I love you Angel in Swahili. That's how my friend in Mombasa explained it.

ok song

[miini2007]

great song

[pasheshooz]

This is a very smooth and gentle interpretation, which I think superbly captures the agony of the protagonist's unfulfilled love in the song. Well done Safari Sound Band

Nakupenda Malaika was written by Kenyan musician Fadhili Williams.Miriam Makeba only did a version of it , result of her frequent trips to East Africa .Still it is a beautiful song.

[mkuki2000]

The song malaika was NOT written by Fadhili Williams from Kenya, go to my channel and listen to Makeba at the beginning of the song and read what i wrote about it.

[mustanira]

nice one

[mogjjd]

Thanks for this song I wonder if any you have the song I YEA AFRICA IT WAS OUT IN 1972 in Kenya as i was there. thanks

[kiboko52]

It is swahili from East Africa.

[trishasinger]

is this song orginally kenyan or southafrican?

[akuraoo]

The original is by Fadhili Williams of Kenya. It is listed on youtube as:

Fadhili William - Malaika

[kzwarter]

No, the original singer is Miriam Makeba from South Africa.

[Tingisa]

I beg to differ. It is Fadhili Williams from Kenya. It is a swahili song. Makeba's version does not contain the whole composition, just sound bites..mostly because she does not speak Kiswahili. I respect that she was a great performer though.
