    No financial gain was generated from this video. Furthermore, we previously donated over $15,000 to this institution during our last visit. It is crucial to acknowledge.

      As a young child I remember watching the film about rourkes drift a British film about a battle the British won against the Zulu but at the end of the film the Zulu start to sing i never heard something like it before and it’s all I took away from that film was my love of South African singing iv loved it ever since , the lead singer is more of a conductor the boss , it’s just fantastic.

      @shelleymiddlebrook1265 This really was beautiful. I’m not a religious man but this was definitely special.
      I kind of feel the same way, though not as intense, as when I watched a video some years back of a NZ couple at their wedding and the groomsmen all started a Haka to honour them. I don’t think I have ever been so moved by something as I was by that moment. I’m not ashamed to say that it moved me to tears. I didn’t understand the language and I’ve sadly never been to NZ (yet!) but it was so pure and so powerful that I completely felt the incredibly strong energy and understood the message. It was just amazing to me that something that upon first glance and being a total outsider can look so intimidating and threatening but yet convey such love and support and emotion. (I’ve watched many more Haka videos since then and know that Haka is many more things then just a challenge) As you can tell, it really struck something in me. I hope to one day visit NZ and perhaps witness it in person. Much love and respect to you, the Maori and all First Nations and Indigenous peoples around the world from 🇨🇦

      I am not from a tribe of any kind I was raised in a cult, our music was very dull more of a dirge than anything else. I managed to get away from that and did some travelling. I happened to help a neighbour out at Waitangi Day celebrations. (She made huge batches of curried chicken and mussels with rice &would need help on the day). At one point in the afternoon they did musical and dance performances. I had seen a Haka so thought I knew what to expect, how naive I was. As soon as they started to sing I had this visceral reaction, I don't even know where it came from but, I sobbed big, ugly, tears for the whole performance. It was so very beautiful to me. My neighbour thought I was nuts.
      I'm sure you won't care, but I just wanted to say I had this similar experience with Music from your home.

      @@kehindeemiabata4032 I am African, so I know. I was lucky enough to grow up in East Africa and then live and work in South Africa for a good amount of time - so I can compare the two different societies. Music and song is a bigger part of South African society than any East African society; their protests, for example, are 90% song (and toyi-toying - look it up). The harmonisation you see, the singing in sync; it is much more part of a typical South African upbringing than any other African community elsewhere.

    My family came to South Africa in July 2023 and we stayed at the Nkambeni safari camp in Mpumulanga for several days. On our last night which happened to be my Son's 24th birthday, the staff came out and sang this song to him. First off I must say that I was so moved in my spirit and blessed by the song, I KNEW THEY WERE PRAISING YAH and ALSO SPEAKING A BLESSING UPON OUR SON'S LIFE. WHAT A BLESSING TO HAVE BEEN MINISTERED TO BY OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS WHO SHOWED US SUCH UNCONDITIONAL LOVE. I MISS SA VERY DEARLY, BUT NOW I KNOW,..WE ARE THE CHILDREN OF YAH AND HE HAS A PLAN TO REDEEM HIS CHILDREN. SOOOOOOOO BEAUTIFUL...SUCH BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE and THAT"S BECAUSE THE SPIRIT OF YAH IS UPON THEM. ALL PRAISES...PEACE AND BLESSING TO OUR BROTHERS AND SISTERS ON THE CONTINENT OF AFRICA - FROM AMERICA...WE HOPE TO BE HOME WITH YOU ALL SOMEDAY SOON 💞❤💞

I get a message from this song. As they plead with the Father for protection and thank Him for protection, we need to do the same 100% here in America.
