[Agalwanga]

I am standing at the entrance to the veranda of my mother’s beautiful home watching the grey rain clouds in the sky. The sugarcane beyond is swaying in the wind. I can smell it, that sweet smell of rain that I have only experienced in my beloved Kenya. My father’s cattle are thundering into the kraal. I am at peace. I am home. Lord, hear my prayer, when I am done with my studies all I want is to be back home, back in Africa where my soul is at peace..

the scenes of the movie that r shawn between 2:00-2:20 r so emotional. Especially when the kid is abandoned.

[Antolin Martinez]

So beautiful song! Made honor to that excellent movie.

[Gaby O'Toole]

2:34 breaks my heart

[Agalwanga]

Ko23374 has actually explained it.

[Agalwanga]

Sam, all you need is to 'feel' the beauty of the song as you have done. Translating it wont mean a thing if you don't understand the context. Take care.

[Marlene Steele]

your words are beautiful, humbling, loving, stirring and speak about the real beauty of being 'home'. I pray you have returned to your home in Africa and tended to your aching soul at last.

[Allyanha]

Here's the translation. I don't really know how accurate it is. wiki.answers.com/Q/Give_full_t­ranslation_of_Kothbiro_by_Ayub­_Ogada

The song is from the Luo nation in Eastern Africa.It someone imploring the herdsmen usually young men to take heed of the approaching storm, and take their cattle back home....

[Sam Saoul]

I like very listening and listening again to that song and I would ask Agalwanga if he gave a translation of that song. I hope you will answer me. See you soon.
