Use these lyrics to help sing along with the video in the “Hear It Read” – because it’s a song, some syllables get slurred together to keep the rhythm. I tried to write it in a way that splits the words into the syllables of the song.
Ba-ba gay-ya em-ta? – When is Baba coming?
Gay-ya saa-‘a sit-ta – He’s coming at 6 o’clock.
Raa-kib wul-la ma-shee. – Is he riding or walking?
Raa-kib biss-ki-let-tee. – He’s riding a bicycle.
Bay-Duh wul-lah Hum-ra? – Is it white or red?
Bay-Duh zay al-‘ish-Taw – It’s white like cream.
Wuss-s’aow-oo-loo sik-ka – Widen the track for him.
Wu-Dra-boo-looh sa-laam – and salute him
