Gathering of the Tribes
O, what a great day in our history
The gathering of the tribes last spring
The elders met together – all agreed
Griots began to sing
Drink the pure water
Of forgiveness
Sing the sweet song of mercy
Let the cornerstone of the temple
Be love
Solo, singing in the Bambara language,
echoing the sentiments of the chorus
Drink the pure water
Of forgiveness
Sing the sweet song of mercy
Let the cornerstone of the temple
Be love
Drink the pure water
Of forgiveness
Sing the sweet song of mercy
Let the cornerstone of the temple
Be love
Drink the pure water
Of forgiveness
Sing the sweet song of mercy
Let the cornerstone of the temple
Be love
Solo, singing in the Bambara language,
echoing the sentiments of the chorus
The gathering of the tribes last spring
The elders met together – all agreed
Griots began to sing
Drink the pure water
Of forgiveness
Sing the sweet song of mercy
Let the cornerstone of the temple
Be love
Solo, singing in the Bambara language,
echoing the sentiments of the chorus
Drink the pure water
Of forgiveness
Sing the sweet song of mercy
Let the cornerstone of the temple
Be love
Drink the pure water
Of forgiveness
Sing the sweet song of mercy
Let the cornerstone of the temple
Be love
Drink the pure water
Of forgiveness
Sing the sweet song of mercy
Let the cornerstone of the temple
Be love
Solo, singing in the Bambara language,
echoing the sentiments of the chorus
