Growing up herding cattle back in Wedza, Zimbabwe, singing along to this song from memory was often the only friend I had as rain soaked me in the pastures with an empty 50kg plastic Ammonium Nitrate fertilizer bag for a rain coat and the cows wouldn't stop grazing in the wet. 2021 and 28 years after, it’s my friend as I drive my way to work in the West Midlands, England....different surroundings, same joy to a song that has outlived its time. Great memories courtesy of the legendary Dembo. Translation is roughly like this: How can I escape from danger/evil Only through prayer can I live There is that one I planned to do evil to, That one that wronged me, I ask (to God) that he be allowed to live (freed). I am a sinner on this planet, Who covets and kills (working) Against even those that haven't done me any wrong, I ask that I live (be forgiven). Here is a newborn, Who cries from all the pain suffered, Turn around and behold him, I ask his life be spared too. I hereby confess my wrongs so I can live. Shall the Father come? Where is he? When(shall he come)? Shall the Father come to deliver us? When shall You(Father) come in the middle of this struggle? Where is our Father in amidst all this struggle? Is our Father there to deliver us?
This song reminds me of my late mom. I remember how she used to sing and dance to this song in 1993, I get emotional even when typing this. Its my all time favourite 😭
Southern Africa stands up and give applause to the Zim legend. I am a Motswana of Kalanga origin and still listen to the legendary music of Dembo. You cannot put a price on this piece of art. He was an Artist of note. R.I.P. The longest song he has, longer than Chitekete
His longest song is actually Zvaunoda Handizvigone which is over 16 minutes long. He was a musical genius, a unicorn and we are luck to have had him in our lifetime.
The greatest of all time. My Testimony. Ndinokumbira kurarama. 2024 has not been my year. Three assassination attempts at the workplace. Mwari varikundirwira zvavo.
It is 2022,I'm in South Africa,KwaZulu Natal listening this amazing music without even understanding what does it mean,but wow what a song!I love you,brothers and sisters of Zimbabwe.
Ndingabude seiko mune zvakaipa, kunze kwekunamata ndiko kuti ndirarame... it meams How can i overcome sin, except through prayer thats the only way for me to survive
Sametimes I don't trust that Dembo is late , this song it touches my heart always when I switch on My phone ..... Tinokumbira kurarama your soul rest in peace Big Man I'm a Zambian.
Listening to this project of the late Dembo in my mansion in Venda limpopo, it reminds me of all my struggles in my most rural village Tshilivho, I'm so emotional listening to this hit
YOH. Baba we are still here. Muchauya here Baba? Riniiiiko? Before cellphones we would wait for our father to come back from the city, to easy our wait and pain we would listen to this song... while riding his bike! (unpermitted). Mudhara then came and passed, MHRIP. Flip to this date 20/10/2024, am now an Architect, i play this song while working. My father was a builder! I have learnt to live by myself and have my own RIDE. Life is Good. HOPE is all we had and GOD! Peace and Love to Yall!
these guys they sat down and composed music which lasts and carries great wisdom ...this song reminds me that no matter the problems i encounter in life i should pray ... most people my age do not find this type of music interesting (19)...all i can say is they are missing out
You know why he wrote that song??? It's because he shot dead this guy I went to school with for burgling his house the guy was a black belt and he went to attack him inside the house and he had no choice but to shoot him dead, the guy was dangerous his family was into car theft etc "Mapostori" originally from Zambia🙏🏾
Sorry maan to know that your dad passed on but may his soul rest in eternal peace. This song can bring past memories back into life. May your mother stand strong through flat, difficult times and all, I salute
how can i get my self out of sin ,... there's no other way except through prayer there comes others making me do bad things, and others being my enemies, lord i ask you to please save them. (by the way, im not Shona but thats what i hear)
I lost my father 27 years ago and my mom a year after life has never been easy jus turned 30 this year and it’s jus me now against the world . Death is inevitable but may we never die young and poor.
Since I was a young boy I have been listening this music with my father, up to now when I am thinking of those years back it seems like I am at another planet. I'm from Namibia
Rimwe gore was in Namibia saw a guy who was playing this song and I realised that Africa is one. now in Australia but I can honestly tell you Africa is the best
This song reminds me of my late father,may your soul continue to rest in peace....He used to play this song when i was still young apa ndaisaida but as i grew older i began to love it...and it always reminds me of Him😢"vachauya here baba"😭@2024 im still here
Thanks for those who witnessed the life of this legend you are so blessed. He passed away b4 my birthday I'm now 26 years old now l, it's now 26 years now after he departed to join the heaven family. It's so painful to be born on the death of the mentors like this😢. Anywhere your music is the only legacy we inherited continue to rest in peace
My Granny used to tell me back then that this song was written inform of a prayer but I couldn't get it, now I'm grown up and I get the message clearly...RIP LEGEND
On my 1st time of really listening to the message of this song ,it felt as a prayer,it is really a deep prayer asking for forgiveness for all those negative emotions u feel for those who wronged you n asking for the Almighty to forgive n give life even to those who you despise(honest confessions of the darker side of human nature)...its deep
Sunday 4 Dec 2022, listening to this song in Denver Colorado...such great memories I have of this song playing kumusha,Christmas day 1996, Gutu Chiwara...at the tender age of 10...thank you Dembo ,continue to rest in peace
2024 July 7: Listening with my wife m 44 she's 41 and we r reminiscing on the days our Dads would belt these tunes on WRS stereo systems and the Long distance chicken AVM buses would pound these all the way from Harare to Hwange all night 😂❤ vana Chawasarira; Tauya and Pioneer You just had to learn to love the tunes.
When it comes to music, I am a Zimbabwean!!! My room is always filled with joy of this song and I compare it to no other song on earth... Sadly I am a Malawian and do not understand so much of what he sings about. But no musician would satisfy me as Dembo does . I really am grateful to my father for introducing me to the Dembo world of music.... He could play the song early morning and late evening before going to bed...

1996 i was in grade one at Chirimutsitu Primary School somewhere in Rusape, we used to walk about 7km only to go and listen to this song at one of prominent Growth Points, paNyabadza, November 2024 here i am listening to this great song, RIP our legend Dembo!!
indeed, its a sad story, singing about him being a sinner, praying for God to cleanse him, asking to live, a child crying from pain, praying that he lives, he confesses that he lives. He is asking when the Father will come, Muchauya here baba, rinhi? to save us. Are you there Muriko here? If i remember well he was not feeling well when he made this song, wonder it was a cry to God for healing?
Am born in Zambia but Shona by originality!! I understand Shona in and out and enjoy Zimbabwean music!! I once learnt at Nyamasaka Primary school in Gokwe!! By then Mr Muzvidziwa and Mr Chemhuru were Head and Deputy respectively!! Whether alive or they are with the Almighty, they will never leave my memories because they really dedicated to their duties and for the one year I was there I got quality education!! Am in Zambia because the Zimbabwean Government could not approve my citizenship!! God bless Zimbabwe!!
I started listening to this song in a kombi and i was going to my new school as temporary teacher and the driver repeated it for about 3 times then i later ask for the name and since then its 15 years am listening to it. I can change phones but i make sure Mutadzi ngaaregererwe is in the phone. I play it usually driving. Dembo was great. I am lucky to see Macheso n Tongai
Chilling today on a Sunday 29 jan 2023 what a vibe from the man himself musoro wenyoka Dembo......masterpiece....tinokumbira kurarama kuita kunge yabuda nhasi soo RIP gaffa
Still listening to the master piece here in Zimbabwe Beitbridge in 2022 ... I know for sure that this will never fade because of time ... This man happened to have a greatest talent God ever give to musicians ... Leonard Musorowenyoka Kwangwari Dembo
I'm in Namibia this is my favorite song weather I'm broke or have a problem I was listening to this song is my solution to my problems.....17/ 05/ 2021 time 19:40....Rundu town location kehemu
What a masterpiece....they really created a gem that touches the heart and soul.....Music is one of the greatest gifts I have received this lifetime...RIP Mr Dembo ❤❤❤
@@decentmoyo3617 Vana Moyo marozvi zve awa. Kkkkkk Vana Dhewa. Anyway but no need to mention that you are a Ndebele so blah blah blah. If something is good is good. Kamweya ke hupanduki ikako kukotanga wa mention your tribe so you can freely embrace and appreciate something from another tribe. Kodwa khululeka sihlobo Sami si enjoyer life Sonke kube mnandi.
Simbisanai henyu muzvikona muchipfekedzana crown yesungura but vanayo varipasi izvozvi. Their legacy is still putting on it. This is 26 yrs now without him, but the music is still new. Dembo was and will always be 50-100 yrs ahead. RIP legend
Who is still with me in this Covid era he was a legend but my advise to you all stay safe in this Covid period May the Grace of God Protect us thru prayer we can overcome this Love this song Long live Zimbabwe Amen
He paved ways for Younger generation Since then Zim been Consistently producing a stream of great guitarists and classical hits I owe this man a debt of gratitude for what he has done for Zim music and Africa at large RIP Lengend
If you want to listen to quality music, play Leonard Dembomavara, just listen to some of his few songs like Gire, tinokumbira kurarama, vhenanzia, shiriyakangwara , madhiri , babamunini, sharai, chitekete the list is endless
The greatest musician ever ever coming out of Zimbabwe. This man died in his 30s,meaning most of his were composed during his youth.. 20s and early 30s. This song is a spiritual banger.... Alone it's more than 10 albums. Dembo is the greatest
Great music from great son of Africa, really injoy listening to this song though i don't fully understand the message but at least am able to get one or two.. Listening from neighbouring Zambia.
Literally he is saying how do I leave bad things I do. I have to pray so that I can live. There is that person who I have hate for because they wronged but I pray that they live as well That's the gist of the song
Dembo the legend, still listen in 2024 tiripa weekend hedu. God bless Zimbabwe 🇿🇼

1996 i was in grade one at Chirimutsitu Primary School somewhere in Rusape, we used to walk about 7km only to go and listen to this song at one of prominent Growth Points, paNyabadza, November 2024 here i am listening to this great song, RIP our legend Dembo!!
I js cry even though I don't really what the lyrics means,Africa is Africa with it's people not being divided.
🇿🇦🇿🇼😭😭
True
Good
indeed, its a sad story, singing about him being a sinner, praying for God to cleanse him, asking to live, a child crying from pain, praying that he lives, he confesses that he lives. He is asking when the Father will come, Muchauya here baba, rinhi? to save us. Are you there Muriko here?
If i remember well he was not feeling well when he made this song, wonder it was a cry to God for healing?
Nnete me bra
Will help with translation such you cry more
Dembo your music will live forever! Rest well. Even though your life was short we still experience your impact
Eu sou Angolano gosto bastante dessas musica do Leonardo dembo deserve 1990 ate hoje .
I'm in south Africa can't get enough of this music , it hits all right spots
Professor Mohale from University of Limpopo approves it...it is still a good hit (2021)
It will be a hit in 3021, the robots will be dancing to it.

Legend Dembo Musoro wenyoka RlP
Am born in Zambia but Shona by originality!!
I understand Shona in and out and enjoy Zimbabwean music!!
I once learnt at Nyamasaka Primary school in Gokwe!!
By then Mr Muzvidziwa and Mr Chemhuru were Head and Deputy respectively!!
Whether alive or they are with the Almighty, they will never leave my memories because they really dedicated to their duties and for the one year I was there I got quality education!!
Am in Zambia because the Zimbabwean Government could not approve my citizenship!!
God bless Zimbabwe!!

I started listening to this song in a kombi and i was going to my new school as temporary teacher and the driver repeated it for about 3 times then i later ask for the name and since then its 15 years am listening to it. I can change phones but i make sure Mutadzi ngaaregererwe is in the phone. I play it usually driving. Dembo was great. I am lucky to see Macheso n Tongai

Road trip anthems
@@decentmoyo3617 it's a good thing that your doing
Wooow true
@@decentmoyo3617 Vana Moyo marozvi zve awa. Kkkkkk Vana Dhewa. Anyway but no need to mention that you are a Ndebele so blah blah blah. If something is good is good. Kamweya ke hupanduki ikako kukotanga wa mention your tribe so you can freely embrace and appreciate something from another tribe. Kodwa khululeka sihlobo Sami si enjoyer life Sonke kube mnandi.
Simbisanai henyu muzvikona muchipfekedzana crown yesungura but vanayo varipasi izvozvi. Their legacy is still putting on it.
This is 26 yrs now without him, but the music is still new.
Dembo was and will always be 50-100 yrs ahead.
RIP legend
Proudly Zimbabwean kuoma hako kwezvinhu munyika yedu.I miss home
Leonard Dembo is immortal, long live the legend even Covid19 won't erase dembos's music never
🤣🤣🤣
True legend....who is here with me still listening to such music full of wisdom... August 2021
The Bass man 🎸 is ruthless, akapiwa ak47 anopedza bhora futi uyo.
Who is still with me in this Covid era he was a legend but my advise to you all stay safe in this Covid period May the Grace of God Protect us thru prayer we can overcome this
Love this song Long live Zimbabwe Amen
2022 take me back to 1994 when my late husband dance this for me ndichiri muskana zvakaoma hazvo pasi hariguti
Such artists like Dembo comes after every 50 years trust me. This guy was in his own league composing arranging he was second to none.
Listening to this legend up to now up north 🇨🇦
Own league, you put it across perfectly.
They come after a whole century, infact they are once in a lifetime.
He paved ways for Younger generation
Since then Zim been Consistently producing a stream of great guitarists and classical hits
I owe this man a debt of gratitude for what he has done for Zim music and Africa at large
RIP Lengend
If you want to listen to quality music, play Leonard Dembomavara, just listen to some of his few songs like Gire, tinokumbira kurarama, vhenanzia, shiriyakangwara , madhiri , babamunini, sharai, chitekete the list is endless
I am far, far away from home but this is the kind of music that takes me to the dusty streets of Norton where I grew up. Music that does not age ♥️
Shem l miss home too
The greatest musician ever ever coming out of Zimbabwe. This man died in his 30s,meaning most of his were composed during his youth.. 20s and early 30s. This song is a spiritual banger.... Alone it's more than 10 albums. Dembo is the greatest
I call this song international Anthem. my brother, sister and I have this song in our veins all the way from Bochum
Where is bochum..all the love from Zimbabwe
@@philmutonhodza7899 Limpopo South Africa
Genau!
Legends never die, they rest and their legacy lives forever.... 2021 Are we still together?
Eshie yes
Great music from great son of Africa, really injoy listening to this song though i don't fully understand the message but at least am able to get one or two.. Listening from neighbouring Zambia.
Literally he is saying how do I leave bad things I do. I have to pray so that I can live.
There is that person who I have hate for because they wronged but I pray that they live as well
That's the gist of the song
24 October 2024, anyone here still listen to this masterpiece with me?❤❤❤
Legendary music lives forever. It is 2022 and this is one song that I put on repeat and 😭😭😭. My father loved his music Thanks for the translation 🙏❤
Am still diging it wont be that Leonard Dembo's ancestors were foreign in South Africa his Dube's alike worried most of us.
This was my mother's favorite son , though she is late but i still remember her with this song. Rip mom
Me too!
Me too RIP mom always remembered
