about

I was asked to write a song saying "hello"in all the languages of Southern Africa .. turned out there were spaces in-between so I wrote another in some of the languages of the world .. It was then I realised no matter how many different languages we speak, we are one humanity and what we have in common is far greater and more powerful than our differences.

lyrics

CHILDREN OF THE RAINBOW

AFRICA
Molo sawubona helele hello
Dumela unjani .. hoe gaan dit met jou
Dipilile inkosi ketenga hokai
Avuxeni lotjhani thobela ndaa
Morho hujambo sharp-fede heita

WORLD
Salaam zdravstvujtie salut nihao
Hola kalimera shalom ciao
Konnichiwa gutentag merhaba halla
Namasta ola ahoj hei
Bojour dobriy-den dia-duit g'day

CHORUS
I see you .. you see me .. when we say hello
If our hearts and minds are free, we will be in harmony
Like the colours of the rainbow

We all have our own special way to say hello
Whoever we may be we are one humanity
We are children of the rainbow
