Sure, here's the rewritten text: This song reminds me of the good old days when my father, uncles, and friends would gather to reminisce about their youth. This song and many others would be playing in the background. What we didn't understand about the lyrics, the melody made up for shortcomings.
Thus song takes me back to 1987,,,doing my primary level exams (8) this was the song I tell you..... I didn't understand the words but they still ring in my heart as if I understand Lingala....Wah!!! I love the song❤❤❤
The sweetness of this song is in understanding "the emotions of the lyrics"... It is too emotional. As they say,......... "Lingala is a language that sings itself"
I also used to listen to this song when I was young. I am now really interested in knowing the meaning of the song. Especially where the musician is crying.
Monsieur verckys, que j'ai rencontré par hasard quand je travaillais durement... Une des personnes qui m'a complimenté avec un cœur pure et remplie d'amour d'un tonton qui aurait rencontré son neveu. Un homme bon et un grand musicien, un des meilleurs de son temps... je vous jure des paroles qui me donne du courage même aujourd'hui plus d'une décennie après... Monsieur verckys, C'est le jeune garçon turc à l'allure d'Elvis Presley, Si il vous arrive de lire ceci, Sachez monsieur que vous faites partie de ces brefs instant de bonheur et de sagesse que j'ai connu. Sachez que mes prières sont avec vous monsieur verckys, à la personne et au musicien... 🙏
This is one of veves old greats played in old style. Notice the absence of modern drums. The music has aura of sadness reminiscent of death songs. What does it really represent?
Must have been early 70's I was still school listening to record player in my friends room who was a bit older than me and had his first employment and had bought a Phillips G48 record player.

Anyone listening to this song in 2024! It reminds me of the kind of poverty that we were in, when I was a child during the 1990s
Truly music from a golden age memories are made of this.
Ndona! Oh Mama Ndona! What a song, what a band, what a man! Perhaps the best song by Verkys & L' Orchestre Veve
80s memories living in nakuru kenya ,listening to radio free africa at 5am with mwalimu Jame onyango joel...rip
Je manque de mots pour cette merveille Ndona.
Verkys a tout donné comme Luambo,Tabu Ley Rochereau.
Oui Monsieur@@djimenguekignemadjitoloum8270
Wow I grow up in a small West African country called Sierra Leone listen/dancing to these Congolese music mostly och lipua lipua, veve, Bella Bella, kiam, many more Inc the legend Franco. May his soul RIPP
The song reminds me of KBC radio presenter OMUGA KABISAYO. He liked playing the song
Orchestra Veve,Ndona ooh mama Ndona.I love the music to date.From Kenya
I remember this song when dad used to play it on record player at night when he could come drunk.What a lovely song.
Sure, here's the rewritten text:

I first heard this song in 1973 when iwas in primary six at St Martin primary school Mulago,Kampala Uganda.
Thus song takes me back to 1987,,,doing my primary level exams (8) this was the song I tell you.....
I didn't understand the words but they still ring in my heart as if I understand Lingala....Wah!!! I love the song❤❤❤

It is too emotional.

Belle nostalgie de mon enfance
good work
Kwani ndona ilimfanyie huyu jamaa nini ili alie katika kiwango hicho
Ndona alikua mrembo sana mpaka verkeys aliona ni kama compe itakua kali akajitoa
Indeed when I hear this song It makes me remember my Youngblood
Monsieur verckys, que j'ai rencontré par hasard quand je travaillais durement...
Une des personnes qui m'a complimenté avec un cœur pure et remplie d'amour d'un tonton qui aurait rencontré son neveu.
Un homme bon et un grand musicien, un des meilleurs de son temps... je vous jure des paroles qui me donne du courage même aujourd'hui plus d'une décennie après...
Monsieur verckys,
C'est le jeune garçon turc à l'allure d'Elvis Presley,
Si il vous arrive de lire ceci,
Sachez monsieur que vous faites partie de ces brefs instant de bonheur et de sagesse que j'ai connu.
Sachez que mes prières sont avec vous monsieur verckys, à la personne et au musicien...

This was an inspirational song. Some Congolese musicians in Kisumu do an excellent cover version of this song
At club vimba 68

You recall of places, events, people, mates, friends and friendships, relationships, family and relatives with a lot of thought and nostalgia!!!
Music relaxes mind. I personally love music.
Thank God I have finally found this song which I last listened to in 1987, my day is made
Good memories those days. Love 💕💕💕 it.
I really love the song, it`s very emotional
OLD is GOLD.
All time hit. Reminds me late 80s and early 90s.
Nostalgic to say the least
Must have been early 70's I was still school listening to record player in my friends room who was a bit older than me and had his first employment and had bought a Phillips G48 record player.
Bell epoque de la repubique du Zaire je mesouvien de la chanson ndona tres petit que j 'etait
My days when life was life.
A master piece
Good time of Vévé with the like Mario, Djeskain and Saakoul together with orchestre Vévé.

When music was music.

What did this mama ndona do ?? I listened to this song for over 20 years without understanding what was being Said but i could feel the pain ,,.. now i want to know 😭😭😭
From my little understanding, this guy is in love with Ndona, but she also being followed by other well to do guys so he feels helpless hence the cry.
