The Magic of Music

At This Time
This Moment
Another Gift of Life
Is Born.

Camagu Kuni
Nina Bazingomb’ isifuba
Thina Siyanibuka
Eli Liqhayoya Lokwenene
Kuluchulumanco Kuluvuyo
Sidomboz’ imibulelo
We can See The Light.

A 20 Year Old Dream
Coming To Life At Last
Liyinene Elithi
”No Matter Which Way
You Start It Is Always
Against The Wind”
Perseverance Is the Key
And For That We Are
Greatful.

For Most Africans
Life Is Not A Bed Of Roses
To Follow A Dream
Is Harder Than To Dream
We Sacrifice, We Lose
But Siyanyamezela
Singanikezeli.

Music is The Source Of Life
The Saxophone, Ikatara
Amagubu The Drums
What More Can I Say
Can It Ever Be Enough?
I Doubt.

Music Is Fun, Music Is Deep
Music Heals and Can Kill
A Medicine or a Poison
Music is Life.

Music Is Sweet, Deep in the Heart
And Rich in the Mind

Only One Can Talk At A Time
But All Can Sing At The Same Time
Thats The Magic of Music

It Is The Connection Of Thoughts
The Meeting Together Of Rhythms
Its the Language of the Spirits
If You’ve the Heart, Then You’ve The Beat.
The Heart Beat, Echo In The Veins
Blood Dancing To It
And The Soul Is Listening
Shi... Listen! What Do You Hear
The Heart Beat.
I Thank You.



Composed by Sithembile Xaso and performed together with Jazz Impressions at Ntonga's House Warming on the 7th December.
