about

Bading ya (Relatives)
Language: Mandinka

lyrics

When the heart and soul is clean, our world becomes beautiful.
Searching and learning becomes enjoyable and living is easy.
When that happens then more positive dreams will happen.
We are given our relatives at birth so let’s accept our differences.
Sometimes there is something you want to do but cannot even if your relative can.
We can complement each other.
If only I could make people understand this.
It is better to work together than push each other away.
Shake my hand, I’ll shake your hand back.
Let’s bring peace and be happy.
Smile at me and I'll smile back.
The best medicine for unhappiness is to reconnect.
God bless the long and lasting communities.
Let’s dance and jump together.
Play together.
