    In this song Geoffrey is singing in Alur. This language is spoken in province Orientale in Congo (RD), in Uganda and in Kenya. Can't tell where you can learn it. You're welcome in east Africa :-)

  • Get the audio from this video at soundnabber doht cohm.

  • June 1979, Kampala, the white women had left Uganda, I arrived. Memory comes up... beautyful country, however,sadness, tears, hunger, misery all over. Hearing Oryema's song I feel like in exile today.

  • Habari gani Malika. Ni safi kabizzzza. Mi na kupenda sana.

    The deep soul of our much missed Africa.

  • No need to understand the lyrics, Just feel the music. Geoffrey is incredible!

  • jsmc563 , take it easy it's just beautifull*

  • This song is amazing. I'm definitely choreographing to this song.

    So much sentiment in what he's saying.

    Does anybody have the lyrics? I've been trying to find them online but have been unsuccessful.

  • I've just randomly come across this song, listened, sit back with my eyes shut and started to dreamin' away, got speechless by the amazingly beautiful acoustic and his solemn voice, though I don't understand what he's singin' about but it saddens me

  • Since the early 90s his music has inspired me to endure.

  • To endure? We all grapple with finding motivation to endure at times. But what must you endure?

  • this guy has created such beautiful music. makambo and land of anaka are favorites of mine.

  • watch this amazing video:

    Africa Calling - Geoffrey Oryema - Uganda

  • Been in exile myself for the past 7 years. I feel your music and I taste the tears...

  • 7 years...for me, it's been 10 awful years, so many things I have lost :.(

  • you are loved
