【一天分享一首歌之第44天】〈Lala〉/ 取自《獅子王：榮耀大地》專輯
今天來聽一首舒眠的歌。1995年，在《獅子王》上映的隔年，迪士尼發行了這張後續專輯，從電影配樂的元素出發，滿滿的非洲大草原風情，讓人心念神馳，是我珍藏了超過二十年的重要CD之一。這首〈Lala〉特別美，但今天查了（翻譯）歌詞才知道竟是一首關於「兄弟情」的歌！套入電影裡，不明白這到底是在說誰呢...
希望你也認得這個旋律。晚安。

Oh mta ka mama wam [Oh, my mother's child]

Oh mfo wethu [Oh, my dear brother]

Ndiyani khumbula [I miss you]
La la kahle [Farewell]
(Repeat)
(Chorus)
We sangoma ngi velelwe [Oh, spiritual healer, I'm troubled]
We baba ngivelelwe [Oh, my father, I'm in pain]
We baba ngivelelwe [Oh, my father, I'm in pain]

Oh mta ka mama wam [Oh, my mother's child]
Oh mfo wethu [Oh, my dear brother]
