lyrics

Strangers, came along to take the oil
Strangers, came along to take the soil
Strangers, came to enslave the young
Strangers, to govern at the point of a gun

Govern at the point of a gun
Govern at the point of a gun
Govern at the point of a gun

Korabora Don (x4)
Ngoma, (x4) Griot !!

Yavu, came along to take the gems
Yavu, came along to make them French
Yavu, told us all to move our feet
Yavu, came along to pick up the beat

Came along to pick up the beat
Came along to pick up the beat
Came along to pick up the beat

Korabora Don (x4)
Ngoma, (x4) Griot !!

Mamady, came along to save the beat
Keiita, put it on a music sheet
Mandinka, Mali Empire stands
Adama he, put it in the palm of my hands

Put it in the palm of my hands
Put it in the palm of my hands
Put it in the palm of my hands

Korabora Don (x4)
Ngoma, (x4) Griot !! (x3)
