lyrics
Jimojenom di nabo ni nanom If you forget me, I will remain alone
Jibetenom bukurool jiyoke If you abandon me, you will wear yourself out
Ayinga Bañiil najaw Kouba Loum Ayinga Bañiil went to Kouba Loum
Jimojenom di nabo ni nanom If you forget me, I will remain alone
Jibetenom bukurool jiyoke If you abandon me, you will wear yourself out
Ayinga Bañiil dane dibuke ban Ayinga Bañiil is already born
Wo we a ha Wo way ah ha
Efuru bujom dinanom When I leave in the morning, I am alone
Midi neeri ni dinanom At midday, I am alone
Katin kuringe dinanom When evening comes, I am alone
Tanotan ujuko ma dinanom Anywhere you see me, I am alone
Aima kanoma nigeleen But who threw me out?
Inje watanot tanowan I accuse no one
Mata kanut di chansi Because to each their own destiny
supported by 15 fans who also own “Ayinga Bañiil Dane Dibuke Ban”
Powerful collection rooted in the stories that must be re-told. Played by some of the most generous community music people I’ve met during my foray into Old Time music.
This CD is a keeper! Ellen B. (Elly) Marshall
