Beautiful woman
  we are uplifted in your exultation
  with the Balafong and the Kora
  the Riti and the Flute
  and from the hilly slopes in the provinces
  the muddy rice fields in Jahali Pacharr
  and from the swampy wasteland of the Tann
  the serene and fine beaches
  the drums of the great Griots herald
  they echo the laughter of your children. ? ? ? ?
  
  Beautiful woman
  we are hearten with your gentle smile
  with the Halam and the Bokarabu
  the Seruba and the Sabarr
  and from the opaque waters of the shrine in Katachilly
  the sacred ancient mounds of the stone circles in Wassa
  the crescendo serenades with jubilant noises
  the drums of the great Griots herald
  they tell the story of your children at the peek of twilight.?
