Come Africa, 1 of 2 by Ken Lindner published on 2021-04-12T20:49:25Z Three distinct and simple tunes form this movement, created for their joy, beauty and triumphant innocence. Amawole (Congo) Just for fun! A wonderful melody, rhythmically very interesting, with call and response built in. Lyrics: Amawole. I am Amawole. I like to see the hen. I like to see the cockerel. Iro Ye (Benin) Many old African folk songs are for children. This song is a lullaby, expressing a parent's love and wishes for their child's long and happy life. Lyrics: My Iro, What am I going to give you? My Iro, What am I going to give you? I have nothing to give you. I will pray for you. Your life will be happy, 'Til eternity. Makotoude (Mali) A traditional song from Mali; a happy traveling song! Genre African/Symphony Orchestra
