Aura Msimang-Kulala (To Sleep)
Folk song
(Words and music by Dorothy Manyando Masuka)
South Africa
Song tells the tragic tale of a boy who drowns after his mother sends him back to the river alone to get the shoes he forgot there. The distraught mother goes to the river and finds his shoes, but not the child."He is not gone just asleep/He can´t be gone, not forever, be gone/ How could I know death was lurking in the air?"
What South African language is this?
