Akekho Ofana No Jesu

Talisman traveled to Cape Town, South Africa for spring tour 2004. One of the places we visited was Liwa Primary School in Guguletu Township. When we arrived, all the schoolchildren were assembled on the blacktop and sang us “Akekho Ofana No Jesu.“ We loved the song so much we brought it back to Stanford complete with dance moves! The lyrics are in Zulu, though the same song has several translations in multiple southern African languages. The title translates to “There is no one like Jesus.“ “Akekho Ofana No Jesu“ is available on our 2006 album, “The Quick Day Is Done.“ — — — Watch our documentary from our last trip to South Africa in March 2010 (Directed by Chris Hanson)
