about

As we or our children become adults, the relationship we maintain can be different depending on the closeness we had with our parents. The son or daughter might be caring more for the parent they have seen as providers not only of affection but also of food and material even if this is helped from the unseen support of the other parent. As the child grows and starts their own family they will tend to help the mother figure especially when money is involved. In the worst case scenario families lose their grip on each other.

lyrics

Jakuo kirimbo to ok riembe nyaka e dhode
Jakuo kirimbo kiki ichop e dhode,
Liech ikuodho mana koloko ng’eye,
Lieo nogoni ong’iyo mana gi Oporo,
Jachan nyombo mana gi wang’e,
Iyie koro ka koro opuk, Opuk manyoro pi otero
Ero in igoyo ligala e yo jorao chandi gi wach.

Gongo mama gongo x2
Oyieyo jo we yoo Oyieyo x2 (Okello K’Odhiambo Jang’ol osiki ok ter dhako)

Kanene adwaro somo,
Dhiang’ nene o u s,
Kanene a tuo,
Nene o u s rombo,
Arwaka sukul oyiech kuoma,
Nene oyieu gweno.
Rawera koro ger kar pino

Gongo mama gongo x2
Oyieyo jo we yoo Oyieyo x2

Wuoyi ose pong’,
Nyako ose pong’,
Ose yudo mtoke,
Ose yudo gache,
Wiye wilga,
Pache weye,
Rawera koro ger kar pino

Gongo mama gongo x2
Oyieyo jo we yoo Oyieyo x2

Jang’ol osiki ok ter dhako

Suna kaya x2
Suna kaye x2


Thu Tinda!!!
