# TUMBAYA *Loto nyonso esengeli kobina.* **[INTRO — Basi na mabeta, Mesana ya ba doigts, Loyembo ya mwasi ya kosakana]** *(Dum… da-dum… clap!)* Yo, yo! Ee, yo! Ozali na ndoto na motema? Ozali na nzembo na makolo? Yaka, lata yango! *(Bass ekobanda kobeta.)* Tum-tum… TUMBAYA! **[CHORUS — KOBETA YA AFRO-HOUSE YA KOBETAMA]** Tum-tum, TUMBAYA! Futa putulu, bina mosika! Hey-ya, hey-ya, oh! Tika mokili mobimba eloba, “Kende!” Tum-tum, TUMBAYA! Lata ndoto na mokolo! Etape moko libanda, Etape mibale kokota— TUMBAYA! Tika esengo ebandela! **[VERSE 1 — BOUNCY AFROBEATS, HIGH-LIFE GUITAR]** Lobi na butu mbula ezalaki kobeta Na ndako ezalaki na mposa ya kosala. Lelo na tongo kuna ezali na likoló ya mbula, Batu ya mboka bazali koyangana. Moto azali koya na loyembo moke, Moto mosusu na lipa moke. Moto azali koya na likanisi ya sika Ezalaki kaka na motó. Mwasi moko na mesa ya zando, Mobali moko azali koyekola mombongo. Mwana moko azali kokoma biloko ya sika Na libanda na elili ya mayi. Moto moko ayebi te oyo ekoya lobi, Moto moko azali na plan parfait te. Kasi ndoto ekoma mobembo Soki tozali kosala makambo tokoki. **[PRE-CHORUS — Basi na loyembo ya kimia]** Oh, kozela te biyano nyonso, Kozela te mokolo ya kokoka. Mema libaku ezali liboso na yo, Tika rythme emema nzela. Soki ozali na mwa moi, Pesa yango na moto ya sika. Na mokili ya makoki nyonso Soki esika ezali mpo na yo mpe ngai! **[CHORUS — FULL AMAPIANO LOG-DRUM DROP]** Tum-tum, TUMBAYA! Futa putulu, bina mosika! Hey-ya, hey-ya, oh! Tika mokili mobimba eloba, “Kende!” Tum-tum, TUMBAYA! Lata ndoto na mokolo! Etape moko libanda, Etape mibale kokota— TUMBAYA! Tika esengo ebandela! **[POST-CHORUS — VIRAL DANCE CHANT]** Tum! Tum! Hey! Hey! Kende libanda! Lenga! Lenga! Ba! Ba! Clap! Clap! Zonga na ngámbo! Zonga! TUMBAYA! **[VERSE 2 — MWASI YA LOYEMBO, BASS YA KOBINA]** Ezali na moloni na kokata biloko, Ezali na mosali na ndoto. Ezali na moyekoli na koyeba, Ezali na moteki na koluka équipe. Utá na mboka tii na engumba, Utá na ngomba tii na libongo, Moto nyonso azali na likoki Mpe libaku ya koyeba mingi. Sweefin ekangaka bato mpe makoki, Kosalisa ba entreprises koluka nzela. Nzela ya kobomba, kosomba, mpe koteka Ekoki kofungola bikake nyonso. Soki moto moko azwi nzela, Tika mosusu azwa mpe. Ezali na mikolo ya kokela Na makambo tokoki kosala. **[PRE-CHORUS — CHOIR EZALI KOBANDA KOBANDA]** Oh, kozela te biyano nyonso, Kozela te mokolo ya kokoka. Mema libaku ezali liboso na yo, Tika rythme emema nzela. Soki ozali na mwa moi, Pesa yango na moto ya sika. Na mokili ya makoki nyonso Soki esika ezali mpo na yo mpe ngai! **[CHORUS — FESTIVAL DANCE DROP]** Tum-tum, TUMBAYA! Futa putulu, bina mosika! Hey-ya, hey-ya, oh! Tika mokili mobimba eloba, “Kende!” Tum-tum, TUMBAYA! Lata ndoto na mokolo! Etape moko libanda, Etape mibale kokota— TUMBAYA! Tika esengo ebandela! **[BRIDGE — PIANO YA MAYELE, CHOIR YA BANA]** **[VERSE]** Soki nzela ezali kilo mingi, Soki ozwaki makasi mingi koleka. Tiká oyeba bolingo mwa moke Na bisika ozali koluka elikya. Bomoi nyonso ezali na lokumu, Loboko nyonso ezali na loyembo. Lobi ekokóma elikya mingi Soki tolongani na nzela. *(Loyembo ekitá na litambwisi moko ya ngoma.)* **[SPOKEN BUILD — FEMALE LEAD]** Ndɔ́to na mbɔ́ngwana na yo… Loyembo na basɔ́ki na yo… Mokili mobimba ezali kozela… Yo osala! **[DANCE BREAK — CALL AND RESPONSE]** Lead: Ozali na ndɔ́to? Crowd: Ee, tozali! Lead: Ozali na rythme? Crowd: Ngai ná yo! Lead: Nani akoki kozwa? Crowd: Banso nyonso! Lead: Yango, sambwisá nzoto! *(Ngoma ezali kobakisama.)* Tum! Tum! Kenda! Kenda! Ba! Ba! Kopelisa! Ya! Ya! Zonga na se! TUMBAYA! Yoka makelele! *(LIBANDA YA NGOMA YA AMAPIANO)* **[INSTRUMENTAL DANCE BREAK — NGOMA YA MBILA, GUITARE YA HIGHLIFE, BRASS YA FETE]** Tum-tum! TUMBAYA! Hey-ya, hey-ya, oh! *(Bato nyonso bazali kobelela na rythme.)* **[FINAL CHORUS — FULL FESTIVAL CHOIR]** Tum-tum, TUMBAYA! Sololá putulu mpe danse ebele! Hey-ya, hey-ya, oh!

Sweefin ezali kosala nzela ya sika, Kosala, kosombisa, mpe kokola. Tum-tum! TUMBAYA! Ndɔ́to nyonso ezali na danse. TUMBAYA! *(Ngoma ya suka ya esengo.)*
