Hive Open Mic Week #112
Hey you, it's me again.
Late but, week 112's theme, traditional/local got me really excited as it gave me an opportunity to showcase my native song and so I couldn't skip.
I'm Nigerian, of the Igbo tribe and I did an abridged version of the song Ada Ada by Flavour, which is commonly played in Igbo traditional weddings.
Ada is a name given to a beautiful girl, especially a first daughter.
I added a little dance because this music and dance are inseparable!😃
Lyrics
Have you seen my beautiful Baby
Have you seen my Tomato Baby
Baby softly cool my temper, Ada
Baby na sugar sugar ehh
Everybody dey wait, putakene na ogbo (come out in the public)
Ihe di nma amaka (Good thing is so beautiful)
Better soup na money kill am
Adamma oya pekem pekem iya
Ada Ada x2
Eh..
Mummy bye bye
Daddy bye bye
In 9 months time, we'll come visiting
with a boy and girl ana akpo ejima (called twins)
Ada Ada ehhh
