DARLING NAWA!!! by David Yohanna Jankoli — Lyrics
About DARLING NAWA!!!
When a choir prepares for a wedding, we always look for a piece that captures the pure, overflowing joy of the day. "Darling Nawa!!!" is exactly that kind of song. Written specifically to celebrate the marriage of a couple named Kingsley and Safiratu, it bursts with the bright, festive energy of a Nigerian wedding reception. The music immediately sets a mood of celebration, announcing the gladness of the day and reminding everyone that what God has joined together, no one can divide.
The lyrics are a wonderful, natural mix of Hausa and English, reflecting how we actually speak and celebrate. The choir sings of the radiant bride ("Amarya") and the happy groom ("Ango"), before moving into sweet, playful verses where the couple promises to love and greet each other every morning, noon, and night. It is lighthearted but deeply meaningful, capturing the romance of the occasion.
In the second verse, the song offers a gentle piece of advice for the newlyweds: to always seek the face of Jesus in their home, and to keep loving each other even in times of worry or trouble. It is a perfect, lively choice for a wedding celebration, giving the choir a chance to smile, sway, and share in the couple's happiness as they begin their new life together.
