Anonymous, thanks for your clarification. It seems this is mixed up everywhere. So, if I got it right, the song is called "Adiemus" and the group is also called Adiemus and the group is led by Karl Jenkins.
If I understood it right, the vocalists aren't really singing any actual words, they just sing sounds. That's why some people might think it's Swahili or anything... it's not. ;-)

Adiemus vs. Enya by: Anonymous
Adiemus and Enya are completely two different things, even though many websites and even YouTube accounts try to claim something else. Enya (singer Eithne Ní Bhraónaín) comes from co. Donegal in Ireland, whereas Adiemus consists of Welsh composer-conductor Karl Jenkins, multi-tracked singers Miriam Stockley (originally from Jo'burg!) & Mary Carewe, recorder player Pamela Thorby and the orchestra London Philharmonic. Therefore, Adiemus and Enya have never collaborated together.

Adiemus by: Arjen (webmaster)
The song is called "Adiemus" but there seems to be some confusion whether this is the version by Enya or by Karl Jenkins. It's not a Kenyan song but the video is simply the most beautiful vid I ever saw on the famous wildebeest migration in Kenya, that's why it's posted at the Kenya-Advisor.com homepage. I don't know if you can still buy it.
