African Lullaby


Last night I went and saw the Watoto African Children's Choir sing... one of their songs is amazingly touching! (The picture is an orphan I met in Niger, her name is Aoua.)


Who will sing my lullaby

Who will hold me when I cry

When I awake and no one's there

Who will sing my lullaby


One straw mat

Two sisters, one brother

Our father is gone

Now we cry for our mother

Who will protect

And watch through the night

Who will be there

To blow out the light


Will you Sing my lullaby

Will you hold me when I cry

When I awake, will you be there

Will you sing my lullaby


.......I miss Africa!
