    For those who don't understand Swahili.
    "Baba yetu" means "Our Father".

      Baba yetu, yetu uliye Mbinguni yetu, yetu, amina /// Our Father, who art in Heaven. Amen!
      Baba yetu, yetu, uliye M jina lako e litukuzwe /// Our Father, hallowed be thy name.

And the best part of all, is that: no matter who you are, where you live/where you are now, what you may have done in the past, or which country you came from, heck not even your native tongue (or, native language) is enough to stop music and songs from bringing people together. They are a beautiful part of our (Note: I'm using the term "our" collectively as in, "all of you other fellow humans out there".) histories and cultures. And, I have no doubt that any of us would be who we are if music and songs had never come into existence. Especially since the language of music and songs is universal!

    I'm an agnostic. I have trouble rationalizing some of God's actions in the Old Testament. But when I listen to this song... part of me has hope that I can call myself a Christian again someday.
    EDIT: It has been a long time since I first wrote this comment. And in that time, I've seen my country fall further prey to material possessions. I have seen people claim to be Pious, and yet turn to greed and hatred. They even go so far as to celebrate others' pain as a victory. They demand greater labor, yet deny reprieve. They strike with a whip, yet claim to be victims. They feast on food, yet call others gluttonous. They would strip others of the very free will given to us. And they will gleefully tell you "You're going to Hell; there is nothing else you deserve."
    And that... is why I seek to rekindle my relationship with God. My perspective has changed.
    The Lord *asks* for my loyalty; the rich man DEMANDS it. The Lord knows of love; the rich man knows only HATE.

      That’s super interesting. “Tafadhali” is similar to Arabic with “tafaddal”, which can roughly mean “Go ahead” or is a gracious way to give permission. Like saying “Please, go ahead!” With proper context. I find this even more cool because Jesus likely preached in Aramaic, the early root language of Arabic. With the context of this Bible verse, one can kind of translate this from Arabic/Aramaic as giving permission- like “Please go then, pray like this....”
