Key: F major
Verse 1
and when no rains come
many people and animals get sick
and sometimes even die.
In some parts of Africa
people do a dance
to bring on the rain,
praying for the rain to come.
It's a very sad dance.
But when the rains finally come
there is a big celebration.
We are beside ourselves with joy.
Young boys and girls run outside,
jumping up and down, chanting this song.
Even I, the tortoise,
who doesn't like water on my dry shell,
have been known to jump
for joy in the rain.
Pega, pega, senku liye,
tapa yeye, tapa yeye,
G
D
G
tapa yeye, tapa yeye, insulu liyana.
