About this song

Tabu Ley Rochereau, one of the giants of Congolese rumba, turns heartbreak into high drama. Sung from the perspective of a pregnant woman betrayed by her lover Nala — who has married someone else — it moves between tender pleading and public anguish, slipping in and out of French the way Kinshasa lovers do.

Verse

Makanisi ebimi na motema y'a moto

My heart is full of thought

Ekomi na monoko ba bengi maloba

Those thoughts have reached my mouth and become words

Pasi nionso y'a motema tina nini na kanga

Why would I hide the pain in my heart?

Tika na bimisa lelo na maloba

Let me talk about it
