  • Malaika, which means "Angel" in Swahili, was a song first recorded by Kenyan musician Fadhili William and his band Jambo Boys in 1960. It was later re-recorded at Equator Sound Studios by the British-born Kenyan music promoter Charles Worrod, who marketed the ballad to eventually becoming an internationally acclaimed song.

  • Jabu Ndaba: RIP

  • Hi Vhenekai & AfricanDreamer, the pleasure is all mine. I agree the lyrics are not positive but I guess more than sad they are really capturing what some of us feel when the one who was once captivated by you suddenly falls out of love. For anyone who has ever had a disenchanted lover, it resonates. and yes the dance beat is awesome. Vhenekai, I have actually never listened to Mama Makeba´s Malaika song, so I don´t know, I must check it out. God bless you too.

  • it aint sout african. big up east africa

  • thanks for the short translation Mangwadza ;)

    Lyrics dont sound happy but the tune really makes me want to get up and dance

  • Translation: Dali Wam (My Darling) Wangibuka Wandinyanya (you are looking at me with disgust) Uzand´khumbula mhla uphela amandla (you will miss me the day your strength fails)

  • @Mangwadza Thanks for telling us wat its talking about,we can't lie that we're all south african and actually i heard that the Malaika that LATE mama Makeba sang wasn't in South African,it was from East Africa, wat do you say bro??And by the way wat does it talk about,i love it but do not know wat it talks about.May GOD bless you.

  • @vhenekai Malaika is a swahili song written by the Late Fadhili Williams (RIP) and it basically talks about love. Malaika means Angel, malaika, nakupenda malaika - my angel i love you my angel, nashindwa na mali sina - am defeated and i dont have wealth, ningekuoa malaika - i should have married you. Pesa yasumbuwa roho yangu - money is disturbing my soul, ningekuoa malaika - i should have married you angel.
