My Brother's Dance

(Aweh, my brother...)

Yoh, I still hear the music playing.

Eish, but you're not here.

I remember when the people gathered,

You were always the first to arrive.

A smile upon your face, a joke upon your lips,

You made every single moment come alive.

When life was heavy, you stood beside me,

When I called, you came to see me through.

Now I look around and miss your laughter,

And all the little things you used to do. (Eish, my bra...)

Oh my brother, I still see you dancing, (yebo!)

To the wedding songs you loved so much.

Though you're gone, your memory remains,

In every laugh, in every touch.

I miss your voice, I miss your jokes,

I miss the way you'd brighten every day.

But in my heart you'll keep on dancing,

And your love will never fade away. (Sharp sharp, we stay strong)

I walked beside you through your sickness,

I stayed until your final breath.

Those memories are heavy on my shoulders,

But love is stronger even than death.

My children still remember your laughter,

And the happiness you used to bring.

When they speak your name, I see your spirit,

Living softly in everything.

Oh my brother, I still see you dancing, (yebo!)

To the wedding songs you loved so much.

Though you're gone, your memory remains,

In every laugh, in every touch.

I miss your voice, I miss your jokes,

I miss the way you'd brighten every day.

But in my heart you'll keep on dancing,

And your love will never fade away.

When the wedding music starts playing,

I'll close my eyes and see you there.

Still dancing, still smiling... (Aweh)

Forever in my heart, my brother.

Rest easy, grootman. (Sharp sharp...)
