Zahara

Zahara
Zahara is and Afrosoul singer from South Africa. She sings in her native tongue Xhosa and English.



Loliwe - The Train
(Song about the African workers who rode the trains that took them to work in the mines. Many never came back.)

Translation:
"the train is pushing
here it comes
wipe those tears off, loved one
in Heaven, in the Lord
lives only the holy
if you want to go there, pray"


Ndiza - I'll Come
Chorus translation:
"I will come, I will come back bringing you my heart.
Make it pure."
