You might be surprised hearing me sing in Hausa Language. I hope I don't surprise too many with my voice and the language most especially.
Now here is a little History about my background:
I was born and brought up in Adamawa state, the Land Of Sunshine.
I lived in the North for so many years, to be precise I lived in the north for 16 solid years so.
I'm more or less an Hausa breed. While in the North I got to learn their language, speak it and today you would hear me sing in Hausa Language
I would be singing to Nagode By Solomon Lange
Why I chose Nagode by Solomon Lange
I was a boarder in Lutheran Junior Seminary, Mbamba Yola Adamawa state and I was Fellowship Of Christian Students Chief Usher.
I personally tried my best to learn as many Hausa praise/worship songs in school and this song I chose for this contest happens to be one of my favorite.
The gospel artist Solomon Lange has been a source of inspiration to me and my friends back then and is still a huge inspiration to me.
In fact everyone loved Solomon Lange tracks and I'm glad many steemians would know this gospel artist.
So if you get to watch the full video you would see how emotional I got while singing this song
I urge everyone that comes across this to give it few minutes of your precious time.
I bet you your not going to regret viewing to the end, smiles.....
I wouldn't want you all to be lost with the language so I took out my time to research the lyrics of this song and provided the lyrics to this song.
You would find the full lyrics of the Hausa version and translation to English language right here, please click on this
I made my video on Youtube
💝 Enjoy this video friends💝
