Gnawi By The River
Reflecting by the River: Indie Gnawa's Journey of Self-Discovery
Lyrics
Down by the river
Reflecting on the banks of a river
I sat down and I smiled
Taking a seat and expressing contentment
Thought about everything
Contemplating various aspects of life
I have left behind
Thinking about what has been left in the past
All the things
Reconsidering initial aspirations and plans
That I had in mind
Reflecting on unfulfilled thoughts
No one, by my side
Feeling solitude, with no one by one's side
Gnawi mcha l soudan
Gnawi travels to Sudan
Oh yeah ya baniya
Expressing emotions or encouragement
Gnawi w hada halou
Gnawi and this situation are beautiful
Oh yeah ya baniya
Expressing emotions or encouragement
Khaliwni wrani ka'ai
Leave me alone, let me be
Oh yeah ya baniya
Expressing emotions or encouragement
Hali ou rani nechki
Tell me and let me talk
Oh yeah ya baniya
Expressing emotions or encouragement
Down by the river
Returning to the river
Where the sun did shine
Where sunlight is present
I heard the silence
Listening to the profound quietness
It spoke to me
Perceiving a meaningful message in silence
Guided me to the shining light
Being directed towards a bright future
Had my self, and that's my pride
Valuing self-existence as a source of pride
Gnawi mcha l soudan
Gnawi travels to Sudan
Oh yeah ya baniya
Expressing emotions or encouragement
Gnawi w hada halou
Gnawi and this situation are beautiful
Oh yeah ya baniya
Expressing emotions or encouragement
Khaliwni wrani ka'ai
Leave me alone, let me be
Oh yeah ya baniya
Expressing emotions or encouragement
Hali ou rani nechki
Tell me and let me talk
Oh yeah ya baniya
Expressing emotions or encouragement
