Neria - Oliver Mutikudzi Cover

One of my favorite African songs by the great Oliver Mtukudzi. Only know the first verse so far.

Found the translation of the entire song on another website. You can get the gist of the song from the translation below.

He says "Neria, dont give up, God is with you" (Mwari anewe)
"Having, your husband die, my sister, dont give up, God is with you
Live is a (rollercoaster) Look out for the bad things Neria, dont give up, God is with you"
((((Although he doesnt say rollercoaster, it has the same meaning...))))
then he says "Women are not treated well, living like an Ophan, dont give up Neria, God is with you. Death is jelous, to seperate lovers, (Mawari anewe). Have a string heart

Hello :) this is amazing! I'm just learning finger picking and wondered where you got the tabs... oh and by the way, thanks for using my translation! haha. I posted this on the Oliver Mtukudzi vid for BBC world music... but I actually meant *strong heart* not string, that was a typo! haha.
