This should be archived in the library of congress. Thank you for preserving it on here. This is more beautiful than any other version, no version of rorogwela comes off as more sincere than this recording.
In Taoism, it is right to believe the past is present now. I sought this sample as a native representation of the Solomon Island's music. This sample brings me closer to the people than Deep Forest's rendition but yet, Deep Forest has allowed the island's spirit to continue, which can not die.
Young brother, young brother you be quiet
Although you are crying to me
Your father has left us
He has gone to the place of the dead
Protect the head of the living, Protect the orphan child
It's almost quite spooky to hear the original recording - apparently Deep Forest never actually had permission to sample it for Sweet Lullaby, and it took ages for the family of Afunakwa to receive any payment for her work.
Sasi sasi ae ko taro taro amu Ko agi agi boroi tika oli oe lau Tika gwao oe lau koro inomaena I dai tabesau I tebetai nau mouri Tabe ta wane initoa te ai rofia Sasi sasi ae kwa dao mata ole Rowelae e lea kwa dao mata biru I dai tabesau I tebetai nau mouri Sasi sasi ae ko taro taro amu Ko agi agi boroi tika oli oe lau Tika gwao oe lau koro inomaena I dai tabesau I tebetai nau mouri
do you have the mp3?? I can't find it anywhere, is there some way you could get this to me? youtube keeps taking down all the versions that aren't new agey techno!
Wow just found out deep forest ripped this off. This version is great, thanks for sharing

This really makes you wonder what the hell have deep forest done to this song? If something is just perfect, why change it, risking to screw it all?

little brother, little brother, stop crying, stop crying,
though you are crying and crying, who else will carry you?
who else will groom you? both of us are now orphans,
From the island of the dead, their spirit will continue to look after us
Just like royalty, taken care of with all the wisdom of such a place
