Its a song about losing a friend to death, basically the singer is lamenting, saying, "Days are not the same but God is watching. Yesterday you (referring to the friend) were with me but now you are gone. I now have to adapt to different life circumstances without you......and so on. Reflecting on their life together."
My kid brother committed suicide last year March and this song brings back all the sad moments. Picking his motionless body from the ground on some rocky hill was just the saddest thing. Shit still hurts now 😢
DANKIE, mfowethu!!! This is LOVELY!!! The song touched my heart in a profound way and the young man's voice and rendition of the song lifted me into the another side. And this Afrikaans "oom"lungu had not the faintest of ideas what the words mean. My heart did, though... The heartache in that man's voice reverberated through my veins and into my bones. Google translate just doesn't tell the whole story...
