Wayidudula.... Xhosa is difficult

This song is highly soul lifting I am awake repeatedly listening to it and that led me to searching for the meaning which was also a great one. Zahara I pray we all make heaven by God's grace, we shall not miss the train.

This song reminds me of Bob Marley's Zion Train. Almosst the same spiritual meaning.
Indeed I also hope to catch the train.
Thank you for the comment

I loved the song minus knowing the meaning. The guitar, vocals was just enough for me to appreciate, May her soul RIP.
