In this excercise we will learn kiSwahili the most fun way! That is by singing a famous kiSwahili song which I believe originates from Kenya and a band that made it famous (if not the originators) is 'Them Mushrooms' [now called "Uyoga" which means mushrooms]. By the time this clip is over you will be absolutely confident that you can speak kiSwahili. Other kiSwahili the matter can also be found on my website www.kulmansam.com

  • I never knew "Hakuna matata" was Swahili. :D

  • @killergophers :-) it sure is!

    And so is "nakupenda pa, nakutaka pia, mpenziwe" phrase in Michael Jackson's song "Liberian Girl"

  • This is the best thing I've heard in 2012.

  • @Coreyrob26 :-) Why thanks.. this is a cool song. Once you hear it, all versions are great and it sticks to mind.

  • i going to kenya in july, this song is really beautiful! ive fallen in love with kiswahili already!

  • walking around in Hamburg, Germany, today I saw a wall with foreign words written all over it with lots of hearts drawed next to them. It caught my attention, took a photo of it and at home I put the words into google. I found out that they were lyrics to this great song. :)
