Henri Dikongué - Bulu Bo Windi Tenge (with lyrics)
Well, here is a song by the great Henri Dikongue that I love so much. But It wasn't on YouTube. So I did not hesitate to post this here when I received his CD.
Original Song in Duala: Bulu Bo Windi Tenge
Bulu Bo Windi Tenge a ba na wo, lo keka sô dutea (eh)
mô di mu ma panisè mudi ma wase
Bulu Bo Windi Tenge a ba na wo, lo nongo so jagamènè,
mo di mu ma panisè mudi ma wase
Sénga maléa, a ba sango'anu na nyango'a nyu,
lo sénga pè maléa, ma batudu banu
Ba ndé ba bi, nje boko, é ma wanano,
pa pè nde ba bi, nje longue la mudi ma wasé (x2)
Bulu Bo Windi Tenge a ba na oh, o si wasa bobé,
mô di mu ma panisè mudi ma wasé
Sè to na wa koka eh
sè tona wè pè mumi to muto
sè tona wa koka eh
o songele na eh,

o songele na, wa bia tè bito,

Bulu Bo Windi Tenge a ba na wo, lo nongo so jagamènè,
mo di mu ma panisè mudi ma wase (x2)
English Translation: When the Night Comes
When the night comes,
oh youth
Try to reflect
Pay attention
Listen to the advice of your
parents, of your elders
They know the pittfalls
They have experienced life
