Macheso seeks divine intervention

Alick Macheso is known for composing songs that hint at his personal experiences. His latest song, Huyai Samasimba, mirrors the strains and challenges that the musician has been through himself.

In in he calls for divine intervention in a difficult situation and begs God to remember a lost soul.

“Oh Lord, you are the almighty and powerful, please come down and strengthen us. You are our creator and owner of our brains and bodies,” say the lyrics in part.

Juxtaposing the lyrics with what Macheso has been going through since taking Tafadzwa as a second wife and the subsequent controversy that surrounds the entrance of Adeline Hunidzarira into the thickening plot, one might be forgiven to conclude that the musician is making a real prayer for deliverance and salvation.

When he performed the song at Aquatic Complex, where he shared stage with Leonard Zhakata and his sungura rival Energy Mutodi recently, with eyes closed and hands stretched upwards in a begging gesture, Macheso attracted the sympathy of his fans.
