Ni Wewe Bwana (It is You Lord)
This is a lovely gospel song sung in Swahili and has special meaning for me. It is special because on my first trip to Kenya a group of orphans encircled me and sang this lovely song. It really touched me. No one translated the song for me at that time. Though I could not speak Swahili I knew it was a worship song unto God. I tried to track the song down for a long time. Every time I would ask a Kenyan friend, no one would know which song I was trying to recollect. I only knew the words "Ni wewe bwana" and decided to search on YouTube when I couldn't get any of my friends to help me find the song. Guess what, I found it! (Update: It has already been some years since I found it and had a Tanzanian friend translate it for me.) The version I'm sharing is the same song but this one on the video is sung to a slightly faster beat. It is sung by well known (now deceased) Tanzanian Gospel singer, Fanuel Sedekia. This song gives me joy and lifts me u

ReplyDeleteIs that an aircraft's vapor-trail on the right-top of the picture? - spring is in the air here, the days are starting to get warmer ...
ReplyDeleteThank you Jan. The hills can look quite lovely especially in the spring and fall.
ReplyDeleteShell, how nice to see you! Thank you for your kind comment.
ReplyDeleteJo, I simply cannot imagine having to cope with 49 degrees daily (and you never complain about the heat, lol). I am so glad you are able to sleep better. Here we are entering Fall season and in a few months, winter.
ReplyDeleteOne Stoned Crow, yes that is an aircraft vapour in the photo. Nice catch! I do hope you like spring and the warmer temperatures though I'm not sure how warm that can be for you. Here our temperatures are really quite cool. They are usually several degrees warmer at this time of year. The temperatures went from quite hot at 30 degrees C or so, to 19 and lower.
ReplyDeleteI love those mountains in the background, the clouds, and the vapor trail! Here's what strikes me about this picture, and the aspect you've taken it from. Compared to God's clouds, that itty bitty vapor trail of man is nothing, a mere puff of wind. Our God is an awesome God!
ReplyDeleteGinny that is a great observation :-) Blessings.
