SILAMBAA BY KAANIBA

Silangfangho beh wankaring kunto
Dendengho ning waro nyamita
Wanyaro buka noono
Nying haari baa beh kenema leh
Meng ma jeh womu jimingteh lehty
Forila follohlu kameng killy
Donkillo kuno
Kafaya ko kungkilly fetendingho
Mengka tillo felleh ka kumanding loololah
Samba sembetee
Nyingdun eteh malongko
Karafoo lebebuulu
Aditeh laa emakalamuta
Abusiyo faana beh emonehla leh
Silambaa meng ye moolo deteh
Tambi laalehmu kanlang
Naa awato sita aseta
Kofonyoto mota baa yelahnoFuraylu benyo commandilla tambilalahTenkereng ning tenkeremess

Kankatty sullolu
Kah yeero selleh ajambo lelah
Dollu ka fo wolleh yeh keyah ning fatiya
Hakilly kunda ko ngha domang domang
Nyineh ka kuno muta yeero santo

Silambaa tambaringho kola
Pissallilalu seh jimi
Fenti wo sabulah for malo
Nying dung tebayilaa mummeh

A performance of the Sunjatta Musical

The acrobatic performance is something interesting.

A good paper on Kaynalenya

Mandinka tariko laa websito.

Classic Sory Kandia Kuyateh songs. Indept Jula Mandinla-mori dialet

I like Mandinka-mori Mandingo. It is fluid and lively. Most Gambian griouts attempt to sing in it. The ancestral dialet for jali's.

Masane Ceesay, the epic by A Guinean, I hope Masane Ceesay's legacy teach us a lesson that, money can't buy you everything.

Mali Sarjo By Sory Kandia Kuyateh

An ancient song but widely sang by scores of Mandingo musicians. The song is central to the relationship between a hippo and a beautiful village girl. Fascinating.
