Temporary loss of senses is seen when falling in love, in our program WAANZIN one of the aspects of Madness, and musically expressed in the African-like piece
Mahaba Madhara. “Love hurts”. I used lovepoems from the 18th and 19th century – who sound in Swahili already like music.
Ninapokuana wewe, moyo unababaika (when I see you, my heart flutters).
I also used street-language. Men being filthy to women on the marketplace and the heap of abuse they get thrown back.
Mbuzi wewe!   (ugly goat-head)           Jambazi we!   (good-for-nothing)           Shika adabu we! (behave yourself, you blockhead)
