Vivan mis raíces africanas, viva Zaire, el Congo, viva África, viva el Joe, viva Cartagena de Indias orgullosa de África de América 

[benlaval8]

salut je vien du québec [montreal]j je trouve cette chanson tres bonne meme si je ne comprend rien. quelqun devrais ecrire les paroles. WE NEED LYRICS PLEASE ....

[monelleny]

@benlaval8  see lyrics above

[GoldenLionDj]

de aqui fue q kevin florez baso su cancion negra pero solo en el ritmo por q en la letra no creo que se parezcan mucho

[GoldenLionDj]

ioputiweo uiuyirywiuu ietyoiu iurwoeiur9o iopweuriou uiyuiyiyuyuuyuyu yu

[luisalbertovargas]

a aquellos que no entienden las letras, la canción es acerca de una mujer aa quien acaba de perder a su marido y se enfrenta todos los desafíos que conlleva ser una viuda en una sociedad predominantemente patriarcal. Oliver es el canto que no debemos desanimarnos y mantenerse fuerte, porque Dios está con ella.

@sadzaNEmuto..my humble thanks for sharing your knowledge and understanding of this song. As I saw him performing the song last week, it brought tears to me without even knowing about what he was singing....intuitively, I knew that the song was about a person dealing with the tragedies of life...your explanation allowed me to relive his performance of it once more...endless thanks and blessings

[levendi49]

I had the pleasure and privilege of watching Tuku perform this song live last week at UCLA's Royce Hall where he appeared with Habib Koite and Afel Bocoumb. Simply stunning performance. Thank you Tuku, Habib, and Afel for sharing your presence with us and expanding the fullness of my life. God Bless and keep you all healthy, productive, and inspiring to the resto of us.

[allezdan1]

thanks!

[walticoderek]

cuando la musica es excelente y el interprete maravilloso no hace falta conocer el idioma, pues lo anterior rompe las barreras de la lengua

[mosafricano]

Nice guitar playing...I would like to know the words of the song...

[sadzaNEmuto]

to those that don't understand the lyrics, the song is about a a woman who's just lost her husband and is facing all the challenges that come with being a widow in a pre-dominantly patriarchal society. Oliver is singing that she shouldn't lose heart and stay strong because God is with her.

Hope that helped a bit. God bless ZIMBABWE!!

[fastrnb]

@sadzaNEmuto

I don't know if it helped, sometimes I like the feeling of not having to listen to and Analyze lyrics. But I do think it was really interesting and cool of you to take the time to explain it for me.

[9shadowstyle]

I want to know what hes saying, very greath music

[mindymccrity]

He is saying do not lose heart, do not despair Neria, God is with you. When your husband dies you need to have a strong heart. Life is a struggle, be watchful for sprits of temptation. Fight through Neria, God is with you. WOmen are treated like "nhapwa".. i could not hear the word, Nhapwa is captives). To live like orphans. Death is jelous, it seperates lovers, be strong, be strong, God is with you.
