[Sexysmiley4eva]

The song is by Afrigo band and its talking about love. I want to see this film once again and idea were i can get it? Am based in the UK

[SolarBody]

Africans play music naturally! I don't even know this language but this song makes me feel so solemn.

[Sirak71]

This song rocks!!!!

[Acharmye]

That baby touching that guy's face is sooo adorable!

[babah77088]

JUST SAY NO HOMO JOE JUST SAY HOMO JOE

[dildy456]

It was only because of the ending credits to the movie Mississippi Masala that got me here to this website. Thank you so much for posting this wonderful sounding music from the Afrigo Band. It makes me want to listen to it over and over again nonstop. Peace and Happiness.

[ChakaKhanian]

My favorite scene of this movie. That little boy touching that man's face was so natural.

[Eazysunshine]

@ChakaKhanian yes thats showhow much black people are forgiving and loving just like the creator himself.

[japatl2]

What's the name of this song?

[sonbarably]

did you know that Indians were European slaves misnamed as "gypsies" because they were thought to be from Egypt?

they were brought into 1400s Europe as entertainments slaves at first, then became regular domestic slaves up until the 1800s.

they became nomadic to escape capture. once emancipated, European legal tricks kept them from owning land, so they kept roaming.

Europe burried its slave history but a brilliant Puerto Rican journalist, Isabel Fonseca dug it up in "Bury Me Standing"

[Acharmye]

@sonbarably The Moors who conquered Spain then were thrown out of Spain by the Spanish Monarch kings & queens were also servants to Mary Tudor of England's family in Spain in the 1500's, 1600's. Katherine of Aragorn 's sister, Juana tried to get a love potion from a Moor.

[playaeyez17]

Everytime...this song makes my heart cry even as a guy!. Music that strikes a chord with good-god filled & provided memories throughout your life &/or lifts your spirits because It's soul mineing HONESTY with NATURAL truth no visuals/ seduction just PEACE, LOVE, & TRUTH was the way songs & emotions were intended untill as the bible stated generations will wax more & more perverse. Alot of things start out beautifull but overall sickness & powers that be in this society try to curropt EVERYTYHING

[nwr33xl4]

@13note Do you have any kind of iPod, or not. If you do have that song on your iPod; send it to me.

[pbhagat]

This is one of my favorite movies. This is one of the sexiest couples in film!

[bleupapillon1211]

I love this movie.

[illgetit18]

That's good. I tried it on limewire, but I couldn't find it.

[kaliyuta]

what most do not know until this movie...is that there is a Indian-African culture.Many Indians and Pakistanis live in Uganda and Nairobi.Adi Armin was a mad man.

[illgetit18]

I so want that song. What sucks is that it is not on MP3. Well, at least, I can't find it. I like the rhythm and melody. I want to add that to my collection of foreign songs. Anybody knows where I could get this? Drop me a note. Ty!

[dafranx]

[ExotiiqueBeautiii]

Love this move, def. hits close to home. ★★★★★

[MrMissValentino]

This was a nice movie kind of sad though

[kaliyuta]

this ending is my favorite part when the baby touches Roshan on the cheek and he holds him.

[MrMissValentino]

I know that was so cute lil cutie

[mus1ken]

Such a great movie

[JamesEStephenson]

Awsome movio and Afrigo has a great sound track which I heard live in 1991 at Lake Victoria near Kampala Uganda. Jim

[gonadianfornicadian]

does anyone know what song this is?

[JamesEStephenson]

In 1991 I went to Uganda and heard the band Afrigo play it. It moves me as well and I lost my cassette 10 years ago. I am searching for the soundtrack and found this. I have not found it in Afrigo searches yet. Jim

[thunderballzz]

Its "Mundeke" by Afrigo Band

[irarube]

yes awesome sound. Also the sub-plot about the father's lawsuit to return to his Kenya homeland.

[JamesEStephenson]

Kampala is in Uganda. I lived there in 1991 and know the area. You can tell by the dresses. Afrigo is the band. Jim

[JamesEStephenson]

Uganda homeland. Edie Amin expelled or killed almost all Ugandian Asians (Indians or Ma-Yen-Dees) the 1970's. The movie brought out the fact that there are tensions between African and Indian Ugandians which was still true in 1991. When I was in Uganda 1 out of every three people were infected with aids now only 6% have it because of there great president (Musevini) and Western Doctors (many were Gay). These people are heros because now people like Majic Johnson do not die from Aids. PTL

[QueenOfBabylon1]

awesome song!

[supakeiiz]

[supakeiiz]

[omegakurt20]

what did i say about me only speaking english

[tonewaf]

thanks asiimwe 777 for the translation.

[asiimwe777]

Namusanyusa nga tulinaye - I amused him when we were with him

Kabami kabami - kabami kabami

Namu zanyisa sa nga tunywa naye- I fondly played with him when we drank with him

Okujako Ngayoyakufa - Except if he was to die

Okujako Ngoyagayaga - Except ...(don't know what last word means)

Bamujawo Ngamukalu ngajo - They removed him when he was brand new

Mundeke bere noyo - leave me to be with him (background vocals)

Eh Tofa tantawanya - and Tofa(name) doesn't disturb me

[asiimwe777]

Tonewaf, continuing interpretation from end of my last comment (was character limited).

Noluwecho mundeka mwangale - So for that reason, leave me to be with him

gwenasima - He's the one I loved

Mundeke mbere no yo - leave me to be that one (chorus which is repeated by backup vocals).

kabami Kabami - kabami kabami (sounds like name of the person)

Namukwatako nga tuli naye - I touched him when we were with him

kabami kabami - kabami kabami

[tonewaf]

thanks asiimwe 777, can you translate the whole lyric from beginning to end.

[asiimwe777]

Song is in the language Luganda sang by Afrigo

Ebyabo bye nze tebinkanga - Their thoughts don't scare me

Okujako kufa noyo - I will die with him if it means I have to

Mu Uganda na simoyo - In Uganda I fancied that one

Obamubi nze gwe nyagala - If he's bad, he is the one I love anyway

Okakwagala Kintu kikulu nyo nyo nyo - Love is a very important/big thing

Kubanga kya ba kyababiri - Because it's for the two

Mundeke mbere no yo - Leave me to be with that one (the one I love)

[filtekk]
