Kuluk - Navaranaq

This is a song about a tragic legend from Greenland. Since I was a child - I listened to the tale that moved me so many times. The Greenlandic band Aalut made a song about it in the 80's, and it is one of my favorite greenlandic songs.
This song is about a girl named Navaranaq who lived for many many years ago. Navaranaq is the most beautiful girl and was respected by her people. Her people and the foreigners lived side by side, with great respect to each other. The girl, Navaranaq worked for the foreigners and was the correspondence between the to parts. For her own entertaintment, she told both parts: "They are going to kill you all!". In result, the head-man killed the other head-man for the sake of a rumour. Navaranaq got caught by her lie and was dragged through the stones and mud, while her people ask her if she is still happy. She was then killed by her own people.
It may be a very disturbing tale for many people - but I grew up in Greenland - and this tale taught me to give respect to everyone and never lie in behalf of someone. I still have a powerfull iconic memory in my head, where people dragged Navaranaq through the stones and mud where people ask her "Navaranaq, are you still happy?". I hope you like this song and gives you some tools to be better person in some way.
Note: LOL for the mistake - you have to live with it.
Next song I' going to cover is Fallen by Sarah MacLachlan.
P.s. Sorry for my crappy hair-do - I need to get it cut.

The past 2 days, I've listened to this song maybe 6 or 7 times. It's amazing. Thanks for singing and sharing. I've also downloaded audio versions of all of your songs posted here, and have been listening to them as well. Thanks for singing in Kalaallisut. When around the world, so many languages are endangered or dying, it's heartening that others, like Kalaallisut, are recovering and thriving.
