    Just saw this last weekend and am very interested in the translation myself. There are some typos on those lyrics I think, this is taken directly from the cd insert for track 14 (If I Could Reach Your Heart) which may have English translations for part of the song "O Makunde" as it follows the same melody...

    o makunda o makunde

    si koudali yet masture unde

    tamali yet ma

    koudali o makunde


    Any help on the translation would be appreciated, supposedly this is taken from an "African type language" but I'd like to find out what the language and meaning is, if there is one...

    Just found this...
    http://askville.amazon.com/language-...8908109&page=1

    Says it's "based on a made up language" but has no sources... can someone verify?

    I did my research on various sites to find out the language is "Psesudo African". And I used a reverse translator website and came up with this. Kunda means "kinda" O Makunde means "on demand, over draft or over drawn". Ukuchide means "ukulele". O Makunda O Makunde means "overabunance "Ko Midochure means "knockout" l. Both T'hamani yet and sekuda ni yet matsuna mean "yet" Matsuna is the word for "mat" that is the best I can give you
