about

In Africa a child is raised by a whole community - we are all responsible for each other, a custom not found in Western culture. This is a song to my unborn child, in which I engage all, regardless of culture and custom, to help me raise my child up with love.

lyrics

AKARIRIMBO (A Song For My Child)

Aka karirimbo
Ni ako umwana wanjye ntari nabyara !
Aka karirimbo
Ni ako umwana wanjye ntari nabyara !

Mfasha tumwigishe gukurana urukundo,
Mfasha tumwigishe kurwanirira amahoro!
No kudacika intege akomeze urugendo,
Mfasha tumwigishe ko adufitiye akamaro.

Aka karirimbo
Ni ako umwana wanjye ntari nabyara !
Aka karirimbo
Ni ako umwana wanjye ntari nabyara !

Mfasha tumwigishe gukurana urukundo,
Mfasha tumwigishe kurwanirira amahoro !
No kudacika intege akomeze urugendo,
Mfasha tumwigishe ko adufitiye akamaro.

Ko adufitiye akamaro!
Ko adufitiye akamaro !

Aka karirimbo
Ni ako umwana wanjye ntari nabyara.
Aka karirimbo
Ni ako umwana wanjye ntari nabyara.

Mfasha tumwigishe gukurana urukundo,
Mfasha tumwigishe kurwanirira amahoro,
No kudacika intege akomeze urugendo,
Mfasha tumwigishe ko adufitiye akamaro.

Aka karirimbo
Ni ako umwana wanjye ntari nabyara.
Aka karirimbo
Ni ako umwana wanjye ntari nabyara.

Mfasha tumwigishe gukurana urukundo,
Mfasha tumwigishe kurwanirira amahoro !
No kudacika intege akomeze urugendo,
Mfasha tumwigishe ko adufitiye akamaro.

Ko adufitiye akamaro !
Ko adufitiye akamaro !

Aka karirimbo
Ni ako umwana wanjye ntari nabyara.
Ntari nabyara ntari nabyara ntari nabyara.
