Tomorrow by Salif Keita This song is about the inevitability of death. Here “tomorrow” means after this life . “Sadio” is the name of somebody who died. Nobody died and came back. Death is inevitable. Sadio, see you tomorrow (after this life). You are everyone’s darling. Ousmane is at a loss since you left for your final journey. All the people of Mali are lost without you. Death is final. Fatoumata and Ba-Oumou are saying how much you mean to them. Sitting or standing, everyone is lamenting your absence. You did such a great work Sadio. Everybody remembers you still. You still live in the hearts of people. Tomorrow, Sadio, see you tomorrow.

I will not remember this feeling. I will remember the emotion. I will remember the moment. It will be a memory. A recollection, a description. It will be tainted and impure. Coloured by mission, by vision, by recollection. Today… I cannot capture it. Not even just yet. I have been blemished. In thought, emotion, mission. My stomache knots and sinks. Somersaults in rebellion. The body will fight the mind. The heart estranged, must mediate… Teased and Torn Unable to do justice. Eyes mist over. Tears well in the lower lid and spill over. Brook to stream to river. Outpour, overflow. Taste them. Savour the release of Nothing and Something. youtube/watch?v=NeTzJJNuRyw
