"when I perform, keep quiet and listen!"
Kata who was hearing all this became angry
He could not comprehend how two soldiers
Who are dressed with the same outfit
And are children of the same mother

One fine Mardi-Gras day, Kata started to "zouk"
Every single person there began to dance . . .
Tanbouren and Boula who were there listening
