A little over a year ago, I had first heard this piece performed at a Pops concert performed by the Fairfield University Glee Club. The song was composed by Christopher Tin for the menu of the Civilization IV video game, but was also incorporated into the opening of the Lion King II movie. The lyrics to the song are Swahili for the Christian prayer, Our Father.
I have since done some research on it and reflected on it and its structure. The lyrics are Swahili for the christian prayer, “The Lord’s Prayer” or “The Our Father.” In a time where we need to foster peace in the world, this song should be at the top of the list.
Great site. A lot of useful information here. I’m sending it to some friends!
