Youssou N'Dour performs My Daughter

Language!

The chorus says "my daughter, do not follow your heart"

Wolof is not a dialect.
Wolof is a tribe, a etnich, a language

its not "endour ", its; Ndour, try to pronounce it right

N'Dour

Does anyone know what the chorus means?

Is there a non-live version of this song by any chance? I'm trying to figure out how similar this would be to "Godinama" with more pronounced instrumental sounds.

So far to be honest, from comparing these 2 songs, Dino may have based it off of his beat and all, but I think he also improved it considerably, assuming the non-live version of this song, doesn't amplify the instruments and beat more.

Yes, on his The Lion CD I believe. Just do a My Daughter search and it will lead you to the CD this cut is on. I'm trying to translate the chorus...can you help?

I still haven't found it. I found another one that seemed to be sung live, but what I looked for.

Unfortunately I don't understand anything he's saying other than "My Daughter", so I can't help with the translation. I think someone did it already a few pages back though. I just know the meaning of the bosnian song based off of this one. Kind of bummed me out. I thought "Godinama" was all bosnian, but nope. Oh well, at least Dino bothered to improve it, instead of just stealing it.
