Żaru Mifsud l-Għaxqi
was as the nickname suggests, a folksinger from Għaxaq. He was born on the 10th October 1933. Emigrated to North America where he folk sang in the Maltese community clubs of Detroit and Toronto.
Back in Malta he featured with the most renowned folksingers of the Seventies, including Żeppi Meli ta' Sika, Żaren Mifsud ta' Vestru, Pawlu Seychell l-Għannej and Ninu Galea l-Kalora.
In a teasing bout, known as Tal-Qamel (The Fleas) with a balding Kalora, Mifsud sang:
Jien rasi bix-xagħar mimlija
Il-qamel fiha kemm jirgħu
Int f'rasek m'għandek l-ebda xagħra
U l-qamel tgħallmu jiskejzjaw.
Il-qamel tiegħi kemm hu dħuli
jara in-nies aktar jidritta
u tiegħek min-nies qed jibża
qiegħed fl-irdoss taħt il-beritta.
Għandi moħħi mimli bl-għana
risposti kemm trid nagħtik
u xagħri mimlija bil-qamel
jien lilek minn kollox ngħaddik.
Jien għidtlek biex provi tagħtini
mhux bħal għedewwa, bħala ħbieb
'ma jekk injurant tgħajjar lili
veru tkun l-akbar giddieb.
There are several keen għana followers who declare that Mifsud was their favourite folksinger of all. He passed away in 2001.
