This song saved my life at a time when I had lost complete touch of this world, when I heard her voice I was grounded again. Her voice in this song has a motherly quality to it and to me at the time it was like the voice of a mother guiding me back to the truth.
@@victorrubahimbya1124 i cried listening to this song in bed, there was something so deep about this song i cant put into words, it's as if it reminded my soul of something its missing, something so spiritual
Message to most today's popstars. You dont need to show your body or fancy shows . Learn from her. All you need is to sit down and product wonderful music like this one
This song, the music, touched me. I don't understand a word of what she is singing about, but there's a reverence about this song that is unspeakable...thank you....
A new feminine energy is sweeping across the world to restore the balance humanity needs to continue its path of evolution. Sona is a perfect example of this new life. Thank you, Sona for leading the way in Gambia. Hopefully other African countries will soon follow your lead. Thank you for being wonderful.
Shandiz.............I just listened to her again and what I hear is not just sound, but her soul...........her soul of love and peace and beauty. If only humanity in the war torn areas of the world could just sit and listen to her for a few minutes a day, they would create a momentum of peace.
yes, very nice especially when they create beautiful music. Just today I was listening to Joey Alexander at the piano, the 14 year jazz performer who plays like a seasoned 40 year old master. I swear Joey must have been one of the great pianists in a past life.
Written by Sona Jobarteh Malinke Lyrics by Wilferd Abdoul Willey Verse 1 Hmmmm,suba saya in the darkness of death the orphans cry that disease is the source of death can't you see i've suffered in pain?? I have no hope left in this world because death broke my heart but one has to resign to fate mother.please help me accept this face i'm talking to you,my love listen to what i'm trying to say my words have turned into air CHORUS No one can change destiny do you know the pains of love CHORUS CONT.. you left me here in darkness heart broken and longing for you only God can repay you for what you did for me in this life i promise you one thing i will never forget you VERSE 2 My mother told me that life is difficult some are laughing while others cry everyday when you left this world you also took a part of me with you the words you said to me i still think about to this day i promise you until i die i will never forget you
Once you truly love someone you will fully understand this song. We may be apart, and life takes us in different paths, but nothing can ever take true love away. Sayang kamu.
Sound is magic. It touches people, it touches the universe, it flies away, it touches the soul. But you touch in a completely different way. Your magic is completely different. I always want to admire your voice. I want to hear only you and only you. This makes my heart grow bigger. Sonah Jobarteh has a completely different language in her soul. A sacred language... I love you
New means to express deep emotions are knocking at the doors of our hearts, beckoning us to open our mind and accept that feelings are universal. From the careful guitar plucking to a breezy, vulnerable voice devoid of all diva artifices, we get to witness the canvassing of a masterpiece. What astounds me with this performance is the personal interpretation that still celebrates the West African griot tradition of storytelling, record keeping...the strength of nations, the keeper of time past, the smile over a possibly bright future. Sona sings her dialogue with us. Never forcing her craft on us but instead asking us to imagine what she is feeling and relate it to our rich human experience. One must also candidly smile at the avuncular aura surrounding her performance. In a feat of humility, the male accompanists never seek to shine but extend her dialogue and lay the tapestry over which her voices draws the stories and thoughts that will flicker in our mind.
Nancy Gagnon hi Nancy the title of the son is called “SAYA” which mean DEATH but is very beautiful and sad song but yet still if you have more interest to know more just contact me through my email or WhatsApp drammehpa@gmail.com or WhatsApp +2207878955 then I will explain to you more about the song verbally
2024! Qui est là ? J'écoute ce son en boucle, surtout les weekends avec mon thé en ébullition à côté.❤ Quelle pure délice ! Merci, Sona pour ce bonheur que tu nous apportes !
Wow this it's beautiful Music and sound cool, it’s a shame that I cannot understand a word, but like they say music is an universal language, just follow your heart and the rhythm will carry you!
@ohmsasucam You are right, its Bambara... Saya is about passing away. This is a song about the pain of losing a special person in your life. the full english translation to this song is in the sleeve notes to her album "Fasiya".
Good music Hath no Boundaries, albeit I don't understand her language ...I am deeply moved and touched .On repeat,all day ..at work ,in the car ,at the gym..I salute#
Walaye sona jobarteh Je t'aime énormément Mille merciii pour tes belles chanson pour moi tu es la reine de la chanson tu sais tellement bien chanter je me laisser emporter pas ta chanson merci pour ta chanson SAYA cela me faire penser a mon père I LOVE YOU sona jobarteh ♥♥♥
De cette musique, de cette voix, du visage de ces 3 musiciens, suinte une sérénité qui étreint. Pleurs de joie paisible dans les respirations chaudes montant, descendant, remontant doucement dans la scansion du jeu..-En boucle!
To Elohim, El Shaadi, Erkana, The One Who Has Many Names... The Tao, The Buddah mind, the Three Jewels of Refuge... Light and the Endless Darkness, The Void into which we came and go... Pure awareness, remind us of our ancient wisdom and peace, glory and wealth, soul and flesh... Love and light
This song saved my life at a time when I had lost complete touch of this world, when I heard her voice I was grounded again. Her voice in this song has a motherly quality to it and to me at the time it was like the voice of a mother guiding me back to the truth.
💕 I literally listen to this song in bed till I sleep off

I believe this song is to her grandmother.

12 years later this woman is still as beautiful as the day she performed this!
She's the most beautiful 💞🙏 woman
Focus on the music not on how she looks like...
@@alkebworld I can focus on both now mind your business
A Ghanaian, a Nigerian and a Gambian..... It can only be beautiful!
I'm proud to be African where good music comes from
This song, the music, touched me. I don't understand a word of what she is singing about, but there's a reverence about this song that is unspeakable...thank you....
Patricia-Anne Cockburn she talks about death. Saya mean death.
She's talking about the adsence of a loved one being swept away by death
A new feminine energy is sweeping across the world to restore the balance humanity needs to continue its path of evolution. Sona is a perfect example of this new life. Thank you, Sona for leading the way in Gambia. Hopefully other African countries will

charles benedetti -so well said!
Im completely overwelmed by this energy and I love it. She's exactly what we need.

how nice people live in this world...
yes, very nice especially when they create beautiful music. Just today I was listening to Joey Alexander at the piano, the 14 year jazz performer who plays like a seasoned 40 year old master. I swear Joey must have been one of the great pianists in a past life.
We love you Sona, your voice is heaven sent. Awesome music, wonderful crew. "Afrikan music has soul" 🇬🇲

Lyrics by Wilferd Abdoul Willey
Verse 1
Hmmmm,suba saya
in the darkness of death
the orphans cry
that disease is the source of death
can't you see i've suffered in pain??
I have no hope left in this world
because death broke my heart
but one has to resign to fate
mother.please help me accept this face
i'm talking to you,my love
listen to what i'm trying to say
my words have turned into air
CHORUS
No one can change destiny
do you know the pains of love
CHORUS CONT..
you left me here in darkness
heart broken and longing for you
only God can repay you
for what you did for me in this life
i promise you one thing
i will never forget you
VERSE 2
My mother told me that life is difficult
some are laughing while others cry everyday
when you left this world
you also took a part of me with you
the words you said to me
i still think about to this day
i promise you
until i die i will never forget you
Thank you ! ! !
Thank you
ROXANA RR peace to you thanks :)
Love this songs
