Balafon

Let me please introduce you

To a sound that will move you

They call it balafon

No one's sure where it comes from

Some old african kingdom

Somewhere like Cameroon

Here we call it marimba

Music made with your fingers

Rhythm becomes a song

Feels so good when they play it

Soon you'll learn how to say it

You'll call it balafon

Marim-baje, ire-shire

Balafonja, orin-axe

Marim-baje, ire-shire

Balafonja, orin-axe

Isso que toca bem, bem

Isso que toca bem, bem

Chama-se balafon

Nhen-nhen patapa nha-nha

Nhen-nhen patapa nha-nha
