Daukaka ga Allah A cikin Sama by Ike Al. Eseka — Lyrics
About Daukaka ga Allah A cikin Sama
"Daukaka ga Allah A cikin Sama" is a vibrant Hausa Christmas choral piece that brings the Nativity story to life. Arranged by Ike Al. Eseka, the song opens with the angelic proclamation of "Glory to God in the highest" before unfolding the humble scene of Christ's birth. The lyrics beautifully recount the events in the city of David, describing how the Savior was born among animals and wrapped in swaddling clothes.
In the choir loft, this piece shines during the Christmas season, especially as a festive Gloria or a lively Offertory anthem. The arrangement uses a dynamic, interweaving structure where the continuous praise of God in the highest anchors the narrative of the shepherds being called to Bethlehem ("Zoo muje baitalami"). It builds to a joyful climax, honoring the Holy Family with praises for Joseph and Mary ("Daraja ga Yesufu, Daraja ga Moriamu"), leaving the congregation with a profound sense of Christmas joy and reverence for the newborn King.
