I'm here. At 2:35 in the mornìng during lockdown in SA. I'm so emotional, because she spoke in my language. Daai is myne daai translatès as That one is mine.
Mam Mariam Makeba is a tall baobab tree of the central African landscape. She is a deep-rooted oak tree whose roots draw at the south of the African continent. She is a green olive leaf in spring time, sun-kissed by the sunrise on the East. She's a palm tree whose exotic shade casts to the West in sunrise and to the East in sunset. She's surely somewhere in paradise now making it greener and greener and greener and greener. 🌿
This was so beautiful. She was not only a wonder singer, but she also had the capacity to put you right where the story was happening, just like watching a movie. She was an authentic performer !!!
[Chorus] (Meet me at the river) Where the waterfall caresses rocks on the mountainside (Meet me at the river, meet me at the river) Where the early morning sunshine lights up the valley green (Meet me at the river, meet me at the river) I'll be waiting in the water, where the rainbow ends (Meet me at the river, meet me at the river) Stand upon a rock and call my name out loud (Meet me at the river, meet me at the river) Whisper sweet and tender words and open up my heart (Meet me at the river, meet me at the river) (Meet me at the river)
She knew how to tell the struggle stories through the music stage. She was a story teller, she told the world about Africa, her African roots, her home.
I was just missing my home music, I am blessed to come from a country with so much music everyone sings well,from there.Listen to them at funerals,at church,anywhere anytime.❤❤❤,I love my people and the country I come from.
Yeah I think, they also met at the river...nice memories...when it tapes place at the river, in the bush or in the...mountain. Life is so great But we miss MM forever RIP
