[MalakSalaam]

These are the pygmies in Burundi! They're singing in Kirundi

[MsMdd1980]

[cesaryarlaque]

Esto se acerca a lo más puro del ser humano.

[leilalove200]

[nbcable]

These people may look peaceful, but they were fierce warriors long ago. Twa made up the Rwandan king's shock troops

[dbozzi52]

Can't help but think the child would dancing even better if he was getting enough to eat.I wonder will he live to adulthood?

[afrogroov]

@dbozzi52 shaame! What a condescendant comment righ here!?? Shock and awe! That kid looks super healthy to me, not all Africans are starving you know...

[nessie531]

@afrogroov AGREED!!! And I think the point is you can live in a mud and thatch home and walk around barefoot and still be happy enough about your life and lot that you CAN dance just for the hell of it. Sometimes I feel like the US can learn a lot from people like this tribe.

[Rebechon]

Damn that kid is fierce.

[tchoclate]

that was nice!!!

[MrFibertiger]

people wonder why a lot of african americans are talented singers and dancers. It's because their ancestors came from a rich tradition of singing and dancing with joy and passed it on.

[glurdtheineffable]

@MrFibertiger

I understand your sentiment is positive, and pardon the double negative, but there isn't a cultural group in the history of humanity that doesn't have a rich history of song and dance. The lesson is in our oneness and not our supposed differences.

[xTheDeathSaintx]

@MrFibertiger if that was true al the 1s we treated like slaves would be hard workers an we ALL know thats not true

[kabuyete]

this boy !!! amazing !!! very nice !!!!!

[we315tisini]

this is what i call the African spirit, no need to take Ballet or any dance classes.. mother nature just gives you the power!.. Viva Afrika!

[katievhoneychurch]

the lyrics are "there is no war that can hurt them"

[Zarasha1]

I was feeling really down and God led me to this beautiful video. Yahwe bless all the people in this village and the person who put the video on. Thanks for sharing.

[cberez]

I watched this last night, and couldn't stop thinking about it today. That little boy is talented! I've never seen a coordinated toddler before.

[maarean1]

Thanks for your warm and intelligent comment, jucafii! I think in the same way!

[xander7ful]

God bless them. I pray they remain on this earth, if just to spread their joy to the rest of the world.

[101Giko]

[kizuburundi9]

komeze mwizere amahoro azoboneka.

[tabasamuz]

Africa ,praising God is not debate we praise like there is no tomorrow, we might not be "developed" but the peace we have within our hearts, amaze the other nations of how we survive and always have a smile on our face .look at that little cute one amazing right?

[Akita619]

Oh my This is so beautiful. Little man is rockin!

[missjosee]

ohh i jus wanted to adopt him he is sooo cute....can't believe he can keep to the rythm so well, :)

[krissbella]

Ohh funny me too i wish i could see the little boy or adopt him.. He makes me full of joy..

[daprinceofblndez]

[killlilluminati]

true earthlings

[B4L257]

Is that litle boy or litle man? He do not dance like litle boy, because he dance more then everybody.

[thugz00]

its obviously a little kid

[eddierob]

fuck you

[jucafii]

if we didn't have Africa, or if we lost it, the world will be a terrible place to live. great part of joy and spirituality will be also lost. Gods, any or all of them , bless these two lil'babies and keep them safe to be, some day, adults without loosing the pride of be what they are. I can't understand the Earth without this feeling...

[Testesgirl]

absolutely!!

[zaodizao]

@jucafii

Very well put..And absolutely true

[Testesgirl]

Oh my god..look at that baby! Beautiful black people. So precious!

[flossanova]

OMG this song is sad - they are like saying for anyone who wants the translations - this war scares me - all the parents - and anyone who knows parenthood - can realise it has turned our girls in\to bitches and all our men into basturds - then they continue on and one saying - this war scares me -omg - its so sad - p.s i love da boy who is dancing - i pray to god he makes a man into himself coz he seems he carries such bravely - HE CAN DANCE TOO

[uwamahaki]
