Im.american.but was so fascinated and obsessed with this singers music as a teenager ... It has an ancient quality, soothing yet deeply emotional ... Love from US
Something which could have been gone forever has been saved and preserved, thanks to recording devices. How many people would appreciate or understand that?
I just love him and i was a child when he died! you are not alone some of us are here! However Ethiopians should put their act together to revive his music and make him known! we need to educate youth who are failing in pop music, volatile westernized culture!
he says "The water of Abay/Blue Nile falls through a canal...Death and being far apart from your love are the same...No they are not the same death is better since you know the person didn't come again...My Orange (Birtukane)....Birtukannennnee
graysight his lover whom he misses so is likened to the orange and calls her that- like saying my sweetheart- because maybe he loves oranges. :) It’s a very heart breaking song about how separation is like death but death is better because then you know what’s coming. He uses ethiopian double entendre a lot (which I absolutely love!) we call it wax and gold. Wax is the surface meaning and gold the deeper meaning. Here’s my take on some of what he says in free form plus the gold: 💛 He wonders if she’s happy or sad, healthy or otherwise because she comes into his dreams and thoughts.. like she’s calling for him. Wonders if she misses him. Pleads with people (god) to put him right by her door- so she can save his soul [wax]/ so his soul may learn [gold]. Wonders If she doesn’t like that he is about her. Just like a one portion plate isn’t enough for 5people, He wants her to ‘finish him’ since she has had some of him. .. and the video cuts - sadly. 🙏🏾✨✨.
@@TheBeccasol1 He must not have seen your reply, but you did your part. And I must say that you must be an artist at heart yourself, and of a generous one at that, to take the time to with caring open up the door to someone who was looking in longingly, feeling locked out. ❤ On his behalf I say to you, ... Thank You, ... ..and I Wish You a Happy New Year ! 🍾 [ I don't know why I, without thinking, presumed the asker was male. ]

I know birtukan means orange, I wonder what is he saying about oranges
graysight his lover whom he misses so is likened to the orange and calls her that- like saying my sweetheart- because maybe he loves oranges. :)
