A Platform for Ethnically and Culturally Inspired Music
About "Daniel, Daniele Be"
!Xoon is spoken by a Khoisan people group in the western Kalahari region.

This song comes from a song development workshop bringing Scripture and Gospel themes into traditional and contemporary forms of music enjoyed locally.

This song responds to the story of Daniel.

The lyric, back-translated to English, is as follows:

Daniel, Hey! Daniel,
Servant of the God
who lives.
Was God able to take you from danger?


King Dario!
God sent an angel

He shut the lions' mouths.
They haven't harmed me at all.
