Wá wá wá wá

Lyrics Traditional Congo Song Music arrangements by Paul Mindy

Quietly, listen to me
My child, don’t cry
Don’t cry, my child
Mommy is here
Don’t cry, don’t cry for your mother
You will get a fever
Don’t cry, don’t cry for your father
You will have a temperature
The child torn from his father, this is his prayer
The child who has lost father and mother
You, his family, take care of him!
