@hannatesfayetamene8902 years agoFor those who don't understand the language, allow me to explain a little. The man (singer) and the lady (wearing western clothes) grew up together as children in the countryside. However, she left at some point and went to go abroad (I assume) where she forgot about the history, religion, and culture of her land, and most unfortunately, forgot about him. She later comes back for a visit as a adult (wearing clothes that garnered those shocked looks) but she no longer understands Amharic. When he sees her (his first love), he runs up to greet her but she backs away and asks who he is in English. Heartbreak. Moreover, she no longer wears a cross around her neck (a symbol born by all Orthodox Christians in the country) indicating her loss of faith. This might not seem like a big deal in other parts of the world, but it's a serious matter in Ethiopia, especially in the rural areas. Personally, the girl represents something I fear our generation is becoming: a stranger to our own culture. ...102

@MrMersiea4 years agoHe and she were originally from the countryside and he thought he had an unbreakable bond with his childhood friend. She had gone to live in the city and upon her return after they both grew up, he found out that to his surprise the bond he thought is unbreakable is actually lost in the city ways of the lady (his childhood friend). He is singing about his surprise figuratively talking to all the things that had made the childhood bond (the school they went to, the rural area that they had both spent time in while they were children). The song has a deepጥልቅ sensationስሜት. ...51

@soniadubreuil91343 years agoJe suis française et je découvre la culture habesha tous les jours depuis plus d'un an grâce à mes amis Erythréens. J'avoue que cette chanson éthiopienne est mon coup de coeur!! Je l'écoute en boucle! Les 6min32 ne suffisent pas! Avant même de comprendre ce qu'elle raconte, elle transmet un flot d'émotions mélangeant mélancolie et espoirs. MAGNIFIQUE!! J'adorerais avoir les paroles :) ...33

@Dream-bebe5 years agoThank You for posting this. I feel like I was transported to Gojam via you tube and amazing camera 🎥 and film technicians. The music and lyric stirs up all kind of emotions ....in summary the girl left home most likely outside Ethiopia 🇪🇹 when she returned home she forgot her childhood love she even forgot his name. He obviously was in disbelief she forgot him and puzzled why she didn’t have her Maeteb on her neck. After she went for skinny dipping by the river we see her smile .... she remembered him.😊 ...30
