I'm commenting to my OWN post, ha ha, I really like this song. It's eerily beautiful. Have been listening to it over and over again. Just found out that this is Robbie Robertson with Ulali. Ulali is an acapella trio of Native American singers.
Hey Pim, so happy you liked it. I tried to figure out which language it was by looking online but haven't been able to yet! Trying to finish my school work, it's hard!
A hundred years have passed Yet I hear the distant beat of my father's drums. I hear his drums throughout the land. His beat I feel within my heart. The drum shall beat so my heart shall beat. And I shall live a hundred thousand years.

ReplyDeleteIt's really pretty, both the melody and the voice. The drum beats really make a difference, too. I like it even though I don't know what it says.

Mahk jchi tahm buooi yahmpi gidi

English Translation:
A hundred years have passed
Yet I hear the distant beat of my father's drums.
I hear his drums throughout the land.
His beat I feel within my heart.
The drum shall beat
so my heart shall beat.
And I shall live a hundred thousand years.
