Here's a summary of the meaning for the first verse:
- The opening lines speak of a longing or calling out to someone, expressing a deep emotion, and the repeated "ah, ah" could signify intensity or urgency.
- The phrases "I madji I ma yélé" and "I kanan n'bila nara ro" express a sense of speaking or calling out to someone important, likely a loved one.
- The mention of "Kanfalani" may refer to a person or a symbolic figure in the context of the song.
