Kuimba Nafsi Yangu is a celebratory song derived from the following common Swahili phrases of joy, "Sing my soul, sing my heart. Sing for peace, sing for joy. There is so much love here, yes!" Intended as a concert opener or closer, this spirited piece is pure energy from start to finish as the piano and djembes drive the momentum forward while the choir sings in call and response.
