Zangalewa By Golden Sounds
According to Jean Paul Zé Bella, the lead singer of Golden Sounds, the chorus came from Cameroonian "sharpshooters who had created a slang for better communication between them during the Second World War". They copied this fast pace in the first arrangements of the song. They sang the song together for freedom in Africa.
The lyrics, which are in a Central African language called Fang
Tsa mina mina eh eh
Waka waka eh eh
Tsa mina mina zangalewa
Ana wam ah ah
Zambo eh eh
Zambo eh eh
Tsa mina mina zangalewa
Wana wa ah ah
Meaning of the words in Fang language
Tsaminamina>Come.
Waka waka>Do it - as in perform a task
Tsaminamina zangalewa > Who asked you to come?.
Wana > It's mine.
Zambo > Wait.
