“Nderedi” by SIMPHIWE DANA

I found this video years ago, and I’m still waiting for someone to give me the translation. :( This is a South African artist with amazing talents.

The concept of this video has been described on various websites/blogs:

“a sketch of a future africa in which the west never had a hand…looking at utopian ideas based on african philosophy”

“african futurism based on traditional african principles”

Could someone please give me the lyrics?

    I love Simphiwe Dana , love this video, love the song. That album Zandisile has sounds that bring afrofuturism to mind...
