- Description
- "Mother of Yaya, I cry about what is in my heart, it hurts me, Mother, mother. Mother I cry here, mother of boy. That I should be strong. I am crying here, but there are things in my heart, Mother, mother, mother. You may be proud, you may be proud, but you have only a string around your waist." A rich woman wears a belt of beads, not just a string only round her waist. Topical song with guitar.
