Hello and Hi! Ngasii here with some context of the masterpiece that is Akulaleki. Akulaleki is an Amapiano song by Samthing Soweto, Sha Sha, DJ Maphorisa and Kabza De Small. Amapiano is a South African genre developed in the Gauteng province of the country from sounds such as Bacardi House, Kwaito and Deep House. The song is written in isiZulu by Samthing Soweto and Sha Sha with the beat and production provide by The Scorpion Kings, Kabza De Small and DJ Maphorisa. The song is a scene between a gent (Samthing Soweto) and lady (Sha Sha) pining over each other and looking to go out and dance the night away. Sha Sha's chorus: Akulaleki ('I just can't sleep;) Asambeni (Let's go) Siyo jaiva namhlanje (...and dance tonight/today) Kuyo fiwa namhlanje (...and have the time of our lives tonight/today) Samthing Soweto's verse: Cel' uk'hamba nawe (May I please go with you) Ngiyo jaiva nawe (...to go dance with you) Siye holide (...on a holiday) Mina nawe Bae (Just you and I, Bae) Mina nawe Munt'wami (You and I, my Person) Ngoba ng'hlanya ngawe (Because I'm crazy about you) Mawu ngekh' ang'lali (when you're gone, I don't sleep) Cela sibe nje (May we please be like this) Sibe Moya minye (...and be one soul/spirit/ become one) Mina nawe Munt'wami (You and I, my Person) Samthing Soweto's bridge: Sthandwa mawungekho (My love, when you're not here) Mawungekh, eduze kwami (When you're not next to me) Ebusuku kuyabanda (The night is cold) Mawungekh, eduze kwami [kwami] (When you're not next to me) Shout outs to the team of Ubunifu Space, definitely cannot wait for you guys to return to South Ah to see you all again. 🇿🇦 ❤️🔥
