Today I needed to take time off typing my eyeballs out and as I was searching for some song lyrics as I love to sing I managed to Google down the lyrics of one of my favourite all time songs, YEKE YEKE by Moiri Kante who is a well known famous singer and musician from Guinea, although he was sent to Mali as a child to study music as he comes from a line of traditional Musiacians, lucky Him may I ad.
Here are the lyrics and the song. Please enjoy it as much as I do:
Bi sounkouroun lou la donkégna ah ah
Bi kamberen lou la donkegna ah ah
I madji I ma yélé
I kanan n'bila nara ro
N'bo n'bolo bila
Kanfalani yana sara le ila
Gnin kisse gbela serra le ils
Yékéké nimo yé ké yé ké
Ké woyé boli lalé
N'na doni kassi kan
Woyé boli lalé
Eh eh
Nyé n'ta soron akono mi ma ta I yonfé
Wo dén té soron lonkéléna
Sini Mory la diyandé
Timba bara wouloukounta
Souba ma kata I yala
Ah sara lila
Yékéké nimo yé ké yé ké
Djely mousso ni kédjou to wara bo
M'ba mofila téma yan féou

Actually the other day I watched the "The Graduate! movie and the song "sound of silence" made my lovey tell me about this guy and his producer... well, i never paid attention until today that we both heard this that you shared and we talked about him again. ^^
