Abtigiis Posted August 21, 2011 War zack, Inkastoon ninmakan amxaarada cadow nahay, hadana waynu ku soo dhex koraye, bal heestan ila dhagyso. I wish to invite you as an Eid gift the timeless "tizita" (memory) song, this time adapted by Micheal Belayneh, my favourite ethiopian singer by a million mile. Teddy Afro and even Tilahun Gessesse will not steal a stage where Miki features. Qine new Tizita, Zema new Tizita Tibeb new Tizita, Hiwot new Tizita, Zooraw ye minooruut Ye nafaqu leta Memory is poetry Memory is lyrics Memory is art Memory is life One you look back and live When you feel nostalgic For once let me be honest. I feel nostalgic about those days!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Taleexi Posted August 21, 2011 War ilayn horaa loo yiri; deriskaa mar ku dayo, mar ka darow marna ku diin - Show amxaaro yaryar uun baad ahaydeen. Jokes aside, Tizita lyrics, if I may have the liberty calling it that, transcend across boundaries and cultures.... And I as well feel nostalgic my days back home as a child.

Carafaat Posted August 21, 2011 Why Ethiopian music, why Zack and why for Eid? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Zack Posted August 21, 2011 AT&T, Welcome back Xaaji, its been quite a while. Thanks a bunch for the gift, waayo waayo baad isoo xasuusisay wallee. Galaas muuziqaa la yidhaahdaa waligaa laba heees oo uu Gessesse leeyahay ama Maxamed Maxamuudkii caanka ahaa maka qaadday LOL. Qolyahan iskuuladii Siyad Barre kasoo baxay gabayo umbaa sanka lagaga gelin jiray baan maqaalo igu ah. As you said inkastoo qolyaha xabashida ah xabbad naga dhaxeyso, the fact that their music rocks can't be denied. Music-na boundaries malaha saxiix.

Abtigiis Posted August 21, 2011 Taleexi, You are right, Tizita is sung by almost every Ethiopian singer. It is amazing Tilahun, Aster, and all the good ones have done their renditions. The original singer was an old man by the name Ketama whose lyrics was more about love, society inequality etc etc, but good in his own ways. But Tizita was popularized by a women singer called Bezawark Asfaw. She surpassed everybody and most ethiopians actually remember Bezawak and Tizita tiogather. They think these two are inseparable. However, I must confess no one has done better than Micheal. It is not about the music and the beat. But the lyrics are very, very powerful. Hiwoti naa tesfa Minyooti naa iwnataa Siraa naa agaataami Nuroo naa itaa fanta Manfasi naa siga Ya tawaagu letaa Alfaw ya miyaa geetubet Tibeb naw tizita Life and hope wish and reality Work and coincedence Living and destiny Body and soul the day these all quarell each other, it is the what transcends And you wear with honour Memory is an art Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Abtigiis Posted August 21, 2011 Betam, betam qonjo walaahi. Zack, war axmaar meherkeeda ilaahay igu ma qabane, bilaa meher baa loogu xiri waa cadow'e, way banaan tahay! :D Waxaan ku idhi waxay yidhaahdaan ma taqaan markay ku af garan waayaan "Somale gimeel inji yet fiqir yawqaal" (somali geel mooye xageey jacayl ku taqaan!!!). Somalidu serious ma aha ayey wada aaminsan yihiin. Xalimooyinkeena maalinkii oo dhana xinaysan haddana mar walba dhabarkaa i xanuuni odhan way ka hawl yar yihiin laakiin. Tinaant naachin ba zaare astawishe Ba zemen qulqulat yehualit fasishe Ka falagniat garaa sir dharishe Hiwot tin ka minchiwa tataan tamalishe Remembering yesterday as today I rode down the time slope Reached at the bottom of the mountain I wanted And drank life from that same source, once more Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
