Oliver 'Tuku' Mtukudzi - Raki

[thembasibula]

The instruments are divine.... The song reminds me of a place i have never been. POWERFUL!

[washingtonolang]

Discovered him by chance while on a visit to Harare in 2003. He was holding a concert at the Avondale Theatre in Harare and a Zimbabwean colleague brought tickets to the office. I've never looked back since then. I have attended all his concerts in Kenya too.

I dreamt of this song and woke up 6am just to listen to it. Thank you Tuku for the great music, Thank you GOD for Blessing this Legend with this talent.

Omg, I heard this song when I was taking Uber in Cape Town, I saw the driver how he enjoined and moving his head with the song, i feels the vibes, even i don’t understand what he singing but I feel the vibes ♥️

. I never believed one could die and yet still be alive. This guy is alive in us who walk around with his lyrics vibing in our vehicles and earphones.

[Awholeadult]

Loose Translation:

There are some men that survive on luck (raki)
Some great men that live off of luck (raki)
Who do not know there is an omnipotent being that takes care of us
Perhaps he is in the heavens
Making you avoid accidents and disasters
You hear them saying lucky enough I survived lucky (raki) enough I lived.
Where do you get this luck (raki) you speak of?
There is a protector that guides us in times of trouble.
I hear you say lucky enough I avoided that.
There is a protector that helps you miss misfortune, and guides away from mishaps and accidents.

That’s the gist. Rest in Peace Matemayi

Whenever I feel egotistical this song humbles me.
