about
If you ask Kate, she has always performed ‘We Will Sing’ with Ladysmith Black Mambazo, albeit hearing them sing along inside her own head. She’s still picking her jaw off the floor over the fact that the actual Ladysmith Black Mambazo actually said yes to singing it with her to open the actual album. The South Africa/South Yorkshire collaboration reminds us that the world is full of such diverse folk and those folk can co-exist in glorious harmony.
lyrics
Translation of Ladysmith Black Mambazo intro to We Will Sing
Kuqhakazi zimbali
Flowers are blossoming
Ubusika buyabaleka
Winter is passing
Ihlobo lifikile
Summer is here
Thina siyababaza
We admire
Ubuhle Bo Mvelinqangi
The beauty of the Creator
Sohlabelela thina
We will sing
WE WILL SING
Words & tune K Rusby
Ghost
When May comes in she brings the flowers,
We will sing, we will sing,
And winter by the door she cowers,
We will sing, we will sing.
CHORUS
With ribbons we will deck and trim,
To welcome May and summer in,
We will sing and we will sing.
When blossom hangs on every tree,
We will sing, we will sing,
We’ll take a branch for you and me,
We will sing, we will sing.
CHORUS
The sun will warm now winter’s past,
We will sing, we will sing,
And those in love can breathe at last,
We will sing, we will sing.
CHORUS
The corn in yonder field it grows,
We will sing, we will sing,
The willows dance and the stream it flows,
We will sing, we will sing.
CHORUS
So rise up now this merry day,
We will sing, we will sing,
And raise a glass to welcome May,
We will sing, we will sing.

Thanks for the beautiful music Karine and Dave. it's been a while since I've felt so emotional listening to a new album. Every lyric is so beautifully supported by the piano parts. Laura-Beth Salter

had the pleasure of seeing sam with bellowhead this past november. I'm not sure I would have found my way to this album otherwise, and I'm so glad I have. this is masterful stuff, and it's an absolute joy to listen to. sophie
