Description
Ga-le-ya! — Awalolo, igu aha, we rise!
Ga-le-ya! — Awalolo, igu aha, we rise!
Morning spills gold on the bay over the line,
Market bells ring near the seven-stone shrine.
Smoke of jollof warm on the wire,
Kids facing sunbeams, barefoot on fire,
Talking drum answers the river's song,
Guava leaves from where the elders belong.
Every corner named, every laughter keeps time.
This is Ga-le-ya! — But my heart climbs,
From first light, copper and sweet.
Footsteps wind the alleys where friends meet,
Breeze brings stories wrapped in spice,
You hold the map, rhythm the life.
Ga-le-ya! — Awalolo, igu aha, we rise!
Ga-le-ya! — Awalolo, igu aha, we rise!
Ga-le-ya! — Awalolo, igu aha, we rise!
Short shop, we boast like the Nile,
Underneon stalls at the end of my fair,
Morning harmonies wade in the air,
Palm-oven baskets back into shawls,
The moon tastes like dodo and violet calls.
Grandma hunts up after the rain,
Names of old rivers dish into the plain,
Pantus makes love over the coastal road,
Where every footstep is a story told.
Never breeze changes, no voices come near,
Live for one same love and the chorus clear.
We trade yesterday's sorrow for tonight's drum,
Step by step to the chant we become.
Ga-le-ya! — Awalolo, igu aha, we rise!
Ga-le-ya! — Awalolo, igu aha, we rise!
Ga-le-ya! — You are hot!
Short grits fill the sky with our cry.
Short grits fill the sky with our cry.
Short grits fill the sky with our cry.
Short grits fill the sky with our cry.
Short grits fill the sky with our cry.
Storm came.
