about

These traditional Lugandan folk songs are paired together in a medley.

lyrics

Abe namalanga abalungi mbagaala
Abe namalanga munkubire engalo mbawe abe namalanga
Sikomba kumata nayonka nematira
Mukazi namunyeeye wekaaba ebika
Musajja mpologoma wekaaba eruma
Namalanga abalungi Mbagala

Kamungolo musajja mulungi
Nze ndigenda n’ensawo yange
Jjajja jjajja nge
Kamungolo yazaala abaana, nze ndigenda n’ensawo yange
Kamungolo yazimba ennyumba, nze ndigenda n’ensawo yange
Kamungolo musajja muyonjo, nze ndigenda n’ensawa yange

Translation:

Good people of Namalanga, I love you
People of Namalanga, clap for me and I’ll dance for you
I don’t drink milk because I had enough when I was breast-fed
When the owl hoots, it brings sadness
When the lion roars, it bites.

Kamungolo is a very good man
I will go with my bag to Kamungolo’s place
Kamungolo fathered children
Kamungolo built a house
Kamungolo is a very organized man
