Music is a universal language, it doesn't need to make sense, all i know is that certain melodies/keys and chords can tap into peoples emotions and pull on heart strings, Lisa Gerrard's music does this for me aswell alot of her vocals are in a made up language yet she has this way with the way she sings in certain tones/melodies and chords that hit you deep. Another song i think that reinforces my thinking is Adagio for strings, constantly voted the saddest music ever. Because of the chords melodies and tones of the music. Powerful

+BrooklynRider - Yea, you are right... I think it's the honesty where it reaches our Hearts :D. Very few can get me to that place. I keep it hidden well :D Got me too :(((((((((((((( This should be in a Movie :D

it does have lyrics, even though its very repetitive. and yes, the way he sings makes you feel it even though you dont understand the words..

that is not the actual lyrics.

This is a so called "Joik". A Joik itself has no words. Read more: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joik

especially the flute

+Nila Davis It's well deserved.

Gerald Lee I agree....the fabric is stretched thin between here and there while he is singing.

Take from this the beauty and heartfelt sounds. Let it take you from. Sadness to a thankfulness for not what we have lost but for what we have and what we will again have. I miss you Christopher murray my darling husband. Till we meet again I will live knowing I have a love many wish for. I hope this kind of love for everyone.... It withstands even death. I send my love and open my heart to everyone who is dealing with loss and everyone who is looking for love.

He is joiking his friend who passes away

Jojking is (from my understanding, dnqmot) like Joddling but with samish like "words"

Andy Harrold I do not understand what he sings, BUT I'm not NOT affected! Lost for words...

Andy Harrold yes same

To joik is to invoke or summon the presence of, when he is joiking his friend it means he is summoning or invoking the presence of his friend. No real words, just pure emotion put into sound.

Jojk aint actual words. But sounds based on feelings, kind of

No words. It is a yoik.

​@@georgeholmer6684 There are words. A few, but they are there.

Душу выворачивает.

I quite often fall asleep with it on repeat.

I´m so sorry for you! You have to be strong in this hard time! Sorry for my English I am from Germany :^)

McEwans thank you for your kind words. I hope she's in a better place now.

dude... this song is both helpful and painful at the same time, right? x

Chris Sansome thank you. Yes it is. But I feel all the feelings this song give are worth the pain and the memory.

Grieving is heart rending and solitary but we share with you in your grief because we have most probably shared in this deep emotion. May your heart find comfort in others.

+Malodie Tchapko I guess that "Laplander" is a derogatory term. I don't know why, but I know they prefer to be called Sami. You're right though, that voice. I'm jealous. I wish I could sing like that. You can see and hear the love in that song. I don't even know the guy and I'm proud of him. He still has a lot of humility and sincerity when he sings. You know he is grateful to his friend for his success, and is proud of his Sami family. What a wondrous world we live in, were a young Colombian boy is adopted by a Sami family where he would face harassment growing up and where this friend of his would then pass on and he would write a song to sing to us for his friend Daniel and we could have the privilege of hearing and understanding something that we know almost nothing about. Pretty amazing. I'm happy to be alive to witness this.

+Rat Nej man man blir glad och stolt att ett folkslag som har sådana rötter i norden nu kommer fram på ett sätt som det här. som verkligen griper tag i folk och gör dom berörda. Själv tycker jag man höra norden och sverige i musiken och det han sjunger utan att man vet vad det är för text. Man är stold skandinav.

+Xartim Tänkte precis detsamma. Samerna har äntligen fått sin rättmätiga plats i svensk kultur saväl som i svenskt mediaklimat. Hoppas det kan hjälpa att skydda deras kultur och livsstil. Vi blir alla rikare av det.

?

men ha ha kul

Jag med det är så vackert. Går rätt in i hjärtat

Sámis are more close to Finns than Swedes

Thank you for translating.

Do you go with me yet, my dear friend, Though this is the last time I see you, there will no next time. Cause you will be cremated, and come back to mother earth! It means; I no longer see you? Physically but not mentally my dearest friend! Are you still here on Earth? Hey, please talk me, Paw? So as you always remain in my heart? I lie there, walk on that path and Im looking back, The whole world is shutting down, it is desolated quiet around me, Tears are bursted and fallen, The river of memories just rushes out, and there is a flash! I thought of you, the angel has been forgotten, Have you got your wigs yet? Can you take me with you? Where you heading, Paw? South East or North West? I will follow you, As life is tasteless without my best friend! Amigo, where are you flying? where is your destination? Do you fly to the gate of heaven? Or you will fly with me to the end of the world? Will you be flying next to me, my brother? Or Am I alone now? there're no more journeys? Donde esta, Amigo? Wherever the road takes you, the intersection of our different lifes, Promise me you will wait for me, Until we shall meet again?! I hope you are happy now, No worries, no doubts, But dont you worry about me! I will live your path, I will keep your legacy; forever inspires! Yet, as I will be uniqued with you, The pain you've suffered, now shall split in two. As you're always watching me, from heaven and earth, So now , here I am, Let do it again, as good as oldoodies times! The Agony that you have, I hope it will be forgotten, Float freely my friend, the freedom is yours! Untill we met again, last farewell, my angel.
