about

In the 2012 Tour, Children of Uganda danced the traditional pot dance to this medley of songs.

Longol (the first song in this medley) tells a story of someone who brought his fiance to his father’s home, but she was not paying attention to him. The young man asks his father to judge whether or not she would be a good wife.

An Amaro Yesu (the second) asks – will booze separate me from the love of God? No, it cannot separate me from the living God. The same question is asked about prostitutes, drug abuse, and witch doctors – and every time the answer is no, it cannot separate me. The chorus says “I love Jesus, I love the Savior, I love Jesus with all my heart.”

The third song is a Sunday School song teaching children the basics of the Christian faith: do you believe? I believe in the Father and the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

lyrics

Longol kong ingol ba
Kangolo, yo, kangolo yo wabinena nyari ka
Gwoko gang
Baba kang ingol ba
Mama kang ingol ba
Lapwony kong ingol ba

Q: An amaro Yesu enabina poka
A: Pe bino poka ki lubanga makwo
Nyo kongo bo enabina poka?
Nyo alaya bo enabina poka?
Nyo tala jo enabino poka?
Nyo yeto jo enabina poka?
