Ranpono has begun! Laborers, let’s put our hands togeTher, Let’s join togeTher, The work has begun! Little by little, The bird makes its nest.

All The children are free, Teachers are gone, In all corners of The country, school is out! All The pilgrims are ready; it's The frivolous party season! The feast has begun, everywhere it's part time! Many have arrived at Lakou Migonga. Chickens, turkeys and ducks Are carousing in The yard.

It's The frivolo...    less
