    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?

      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🙏🏾

    Tinokumbira kurarama /Mutadzi ngaaregererwe shona to English translation.
    Here LKGD showed his spiritual side in this deep soulful rendition that not only touches the soul but reminds us to be prayerful in the midst of earthly problems. As usual its not easy to translate his lyrics to english because of how deeply poetic LKGD and his mastery of the Shona language. This song has many a times brought tears to peoples eyes ...its deep it interrogates and provokes human conscience ...this song alongside his namesake LKZ gomba remarara remain the deepest songs ever to be penned by any Zimbabwean in my own opinion ....enjoy

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...

      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?

    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!!

    Tarenda rese rekurongedza magitare rinozobuda paanozobvunza kuti ...muchauya here baba? anozosara opedza kuti riiiniko papinda rimwe bassline gitare ummmm I think pagitare iroro ndopavakawana concept ye 8D audio.

Wakanzwa ka dhum dhum dhummm kanoita kunge kari ku mover from 1 place to the other. If you are to follow the strokes with your hand you won't point at the same place despite the guitar strokes being similar-ish. Wazvinzwawoka? 🙉
    I don't think this was by coincidence, but, anozoti apedza kubvunza kuti mukati me hondo varipi baba kuzotiraramisa at this stage maybe noone answered him saka pakabva parohwa ma drums pa 13:30 anongorohwa for 3 seconds I am sure this is to alert the listener kuti pane some magic that is about to happen.... panobva papinda rimwe gitare reimwe mhando so... ipapo Dembo just decided kunyarara zvake kuti tinyatsonzwa kuti gitare rinodhonzwa tambo sei.
    Pa 14:11 kanobva kachema chema hako ka gitare this time unotonzwa kuti ka kwenywa ka 12 kuti dwi, dwi, dwi, dwi, dwi, dwi, dwi, dwi, dwi, dwi, dwi, dwi, kusvika pa 14:15 panobva paita kanenge ka triple tap kekupendera minana yanga ichiitika from 12:55 kwandiri song inobva yadzika hayo kubva mu chadenga.
    One last thing chaunogona kunge usina kubata pa almost 16 minutes dzese dze song iyi ndechekuti panga parikuitika zvese izvi pane ka lead guitar kanga kakangoshingirira iwe sa muzukuru Wonder Nyakurima kachisesekedza rwiyo kusvika kumagumo blending in nema changes ese anga arikuitika pa song.
