--------------------------------
Glider framåt
på min cykel
Fåglarna dom sjunger
med sitt ljuva gyckel
Alla mänskor,
både skratt och groll,
Vi vandrar våra vägar
från så många håll,
och dom tar oss
Hem
Hem igen
Tar oss fram
Till vår famn
Hem till Malmö
där vid havet
Vi kom hem
Hem igen
På min trampebåt
i kanalen
Ända bort i parken
hör jag festivalen
Denna staden
byggd på kalk och sill
där vinden är vår vagga
och den står aldrig still,
och den tar oss
Hem
Hem igen
Tar oss fram
Till vår famn
Hem till Malmö
där vid havet
Vi kom hem
Hem igen
Men när jag vaknar
i städer långt bort
och magen den kurrar
och klämtar så hårt
Då smyger doften av falafel in i min dröm
Den gör mig öm
och den tar mig
Hem
Hem igen
Tar mig fram
Till min hamn
Hem till Malmö
där vid havet
Jag kom hem
Hem igen
Country roads
Take me home
To the place
I belong
Hem till Malmö
där vid havet
Vi kom hem
Hem igen
Ta oss hem
Hem igen
Ta oss fram
Till vår hamn
Hem till Malmö
där vid havet
Vi kom hem
Hem igen

Till Y.
Här är vi nu
Mitt i den stund som blev vår
Bara jag och du
Mitt i den tid som vi får
Nu är det kväll
Solen går ner över taken
Men i ditt öga
Fladdrar ännu ett ljus
Och när du tar ditt kliv
ut på den stora färd
Då ska jag hålla liv
i detta ljus som vi är
Jag måste stanna kvar
När du har släppt min hand
Tårar blir allt jag har
Här i de levandes land
Här är du nu
Framtiden har tacklat av
Det finns bara nu
Här, på vår strand vid ett hav
Nu är det natt
Ytan är blank som en spegel
Och när du lämnar
Stannar tiden ett slag
Nu när du tar ditt kliv
Ut på det stora hav
Då ska jag hålla liv
i all den värme som du gav
Jag måste stanna kvar
Nu när du släppt min hand
Saknad är allt jag har
Här i de levandes land
Välsigne dig
Bevare dig
Vår kärlek den ska lysa över dig
Bevare mig
Beskydda mig
Här vid avskedets vägskäl, utan dig
Nu när du tatt ditt kliv
Ut på den stora färd
Då ska jag hålla liv
i detta hopp som jag bär
Ja jag får stanna kvar
Nu när du släppt min hand
Leva det liv jag har
Här i de levandes land

Rest in Peace - thank you for the music.

Thank you, Joni, for your massive inspiration.
A dirge in Eʋe, of endearment for the Dead,
to wish them a safe journey home (to the Ancestral World).
Blewu was famously performed by Bella Bellow (Togo), later also Angelique Kidjo (Benin).
Some claim that the melody was composed by Ephraim Amu (Ghana), originally for the atenteben flute.
I played this on Jan 27, 2022 in Lund, Sweden, after the passing of a good friend.

We are going
Heaven knows where we are going
We know we will get there

It will be hard, we know

We will get there
Heaven knows how we will get there
We know we will get there

Bible reference:
Zechariah, chapter 9
"Rejoice greatly, Daughter Zion!
Shout, Daughter Jerusalem!
See, your king comes to you,
righteous and victorious,
lowly and riding on a donkey,
on a colt, the foal of a donkey.
/---/
He will proclaim peace to the nations.
His rule will extend from sea to sea
and from the River to the ends of the earth."

DÄR VÄGEN SLUTAR
Du kom dit vägen slutar och okänt land tar vid
Klockan slog och tiden dog och allting var förbi
Det stolta, starka livet du en gång fick till låns
Det sjönk tillbaks och återgick dit det en gång kom ifrån
Fanns det då, en mening alls?
Fanns det då, en plan med allt?
Här står vi nu vi som blev kvar, så vilsna i en jämmerdal
Med frågorna, med tårarna
Med sorgen
Men mitt i mörkrets famntag så ensamt, tyst och kallt
Ett litet ljus vid tunnelns slut trotsar mörkrets makt
Det ljuset kan förvandla allt det lyser på
Sorg blir hopp, oro blir frid, det läker alla sår
Gryning kommer, en fågel kvittrar
Mörkret bleknar, solen stiger
Det kommer alltid en ny vår, vi går mot ljuset vart vi går
Så skimrande, så tindrande
Är livet

(I only ask of God)
by León Gieco (1978)
Recorded in Malmö, Sweden,
September 2022
Eva Kunda Neidek (vocals, guitar)
Gittan Sundin (vocals, cuatro)
Translation for the Swedish subtitles:
Gittan Sundin
In English:
I only ask of God
That i am not indifferent to the pain,
That the dry death won’t find me
Empty and alone, without having done the sufficient.
I only ask of God
That i won’t be indifferent to the injustice
That they won’t slap my other cheek,
After a claw (or talon) has scratched this destiny (luck) of mine.
I only ask of God
That i am not indifferent to the war,
It’s a big monster and it walks hardly on
All the poor innocence of people.
I only ask of God
That i am not indifferent to deceit,
If a traitor can do more than a bunch of people,
Then let not those people forget him easily.
I only ask of God
That i am not indifferent to the future,
Hopeless is he who has to go away
To live a different culture.
I only ask of God
That i am not indifferent to the war,
It’s a big monster and it walks hardly on
All the poor innocence of people.
An Ewe Folk song from Ghana, about the very special love for the place where you once were born.
It was hared with me by Albert Dzah (Kpeve) many years ago.
This rendition (2022) is a collaboration with Seyram Dei & SEYRAM MUSIC.
from the movie A star is born
