Translation
My lovely girl
That’s me
Beautiful and kind
That’s me
When I want her to sleep, she holds on to my hand
That’s me
And she asks for a present
Oh mum!

My little girl, please sleep, come on sleep
I don’t want to
My little girl, please sleep, come on sleep
I don’t want to… if you want me to sleep then come and sleep next to me
I don’t want to
If you want me to sleep then come and sleep next to me
I don’t want, I don’t want to sleep, I’m afraid, I’m afraid to sleep on my own
I don’t want, I don’t want to sleep, I’m afraid, I’m afraid to sleep on my own
I love you mama
I hold you within my soul
May God protect her for her mother,
She’s like honey, oh world she is like honey.
There’s nobody like her
I feel like eating her up

Oh mum
My little girl, please sleep, come on sleep
I don’t want to
My little girl, please sleep, come on sleep
I don’t want… ill just sing one song and you listen ok
Go on then…
I’ll just sing one song and you listen ok… Off, Meijana, O Ya Maal (different traditional songs)
Everybody say “Ya Salaaam!” (meaning, oh amazing)

”Ya salaam!” Oh how amazing is this
I don’t want, I don’t want to sleep, I’m afraid, I’m afraid to sleep on my own
I don’t want, I don’t want to sleep, I’m afraid, I’m afraid to sleep on my own
Mum, mum, mum (she’s waking up her mother because mum has fallen asleep but she hasn’t…) Go on my love go to sleep (telling her mom to go to her room and sleep)

3. Kana Bugi Cha
Bengali
Oi dekha jay talgach
Oi amader gaon
Oi khanete bash kore kana bogor cha
Oo bogi tui khash ki
Panta vat chash ki?
Panta ami khai na,
Puti mach pai na.
Akta jodi pai
Omni dhore gapush gupush khai

Translation:
There you can see the palm tree
There lies our village
Over there lives a blind stork’s kids
Oh Stork mum, what do you eat?
Would you l like to have Panta rice [Panta is a kind of rice prepared in Bangladesh]
The Stork replies –
I don’t eat Panta rice,
I’m not getting Swamp Barb [Swamp Barb are small fishes found in lakes in Bangladesh]
If I catch one of them
Then I would enjoy a good meal.

4. I Bambini Fanno Oh
Italian
Quando I bambini fanno oh
C’e un topolino
Mentre I bambini fanno oh
C’e un cagnolino
Se c’e una cosa che ora so
Ma che mai piu io rivedro
E un lupo nero che da un bacino
A un agnellino
Tutti I bambini fanno oh
Dammi la mano perche mi lasci solo
Sai che da soli non si puo
Senza qualcuno, nessuno puo diventare un uomo
Per una bambola o un robot bot bot
Magari litigano un po
Ma col ditino ad alta voce
Almeno loro, eh, fanno la pace
Cosi ogni cosa nuova e una sorpresa
Proprio quando piove
I bambini fanno oh guarda la pioggia
Quando I bambini fanno oh
Che meraviglia, che meraviglia
Ma che scemo vedi pero pero
E mi vergogno un po
Perche non so piu fare ooooooo

Translation:
When the children say “Oh, there’s a little mouse”
While the children say “Oh, there’s a little dog”
If there’s one thing I know now
But that I’ll never see again
It’s a black wolf giving a little kiss
To a little lamb
All the children say “Oh, give me your hand.
Why do you leave me (all) alone?”
You know that you aren’t alone
Without someone no one can become a man
For a doll or a robot-bot-bot
Perhaps they fight a bit.
But with their little finger, aloud
At least they make peace
In this way everything is new, it’s a surprise
And just when it rains the children say
“Oh, look at the rain!”
When the children say “Oh, what a marvel!”
I feel a fool, a bit ashamed,
Because I no longer know how to say ‘Oh!’
5. 99 Names of Allah

Lakini mpenzi mamawe
Nitakuwa mkumbwa
Nita kustidia na wewe

Translation:

But my darling mother

And you will relax
And you will relax
And you will relax
