Description: "You are my heart and the joy of my body. You are my eyes and my wisdom. You remain in my mind. You are dark and slender as a thread. You arrange your hair in woven strands. You are the witness of my eyes." The influence of Arabia is clearly seen in this Swahili poem. Love song, with 1 Udi, 1 Mandoline and 1 Duff Tambourine.
