Life In Our Village by Markwei Martif

 In our little village

When elders are around 

Boys must not look at girls 

And girls must not look at boys 

Because the elders say

That is not good. 

Even when night comes 

Boys must play separately, 

Girls must play separately. 

But humanity is weak 

So boys and girls meet. 

The boys play hide and seek 

And the girls play hide and seek. 

The boys know where the girls hide 

And the girls know where the boys hide_

So in their hide and seek, 

Boys seek girls, 

And each to each sing

Songs of love.
