Kaba N'Gondo Story
(Francis Jocky)
This is the evening of a grand annual celebration "The Ngondo" of the Douala people, an evening of celebrating mythological warriors, legends, traditions, and the pride of the coastal people! Passions and emotions run high. During this event, the news of Sombol's safe return in combination with these monumental festivities forces Sombol's father (a wealthy and important man) into a fierce and emotional dance. Using his mind, body and spirit Sombol's father is transported to a place beyond himself. He collapses & breaths his last earthly breath

Kaba N'Gondo Lyrics
A mouna mama mbana njika lambo
Ndé longué mo di mala ndé wè
Bana ba sawa bèsè bèsè ndé ba si nin ngoso
A mouna mana ya bé so nè
Ba douanè biso djédou, ba timbanè biso Douala
A mouna papa sè eyango
Bana ba sawa bèsè mo ndé bondèa ba siba
A mouna mama nèni lambo

Kaba n’gondo , O n’gondo é k aba n’gondo
Kaba n’gondo , O n’gondo é k aba n’gondo

A mouna mama mbana njika lambo
Ndé longué mo di mala ndé wè
Bana ba sawa bèsè bèsè ndé ba si nin ngoso
A mouna mana ya bé so nè
Ba douanè biso djédou, ba timbanè biso Douala
A mouna papa sè eyango
Bana ba sawa bèsè mo ndé bondèa ba siba
A mouna mama nèni lambo

Kaba n’gondo , O n’gondo é k aba n’gondo
Kaba n’gondo, Ambassi bé, kaba n’gondo
Kaba n’gondo, Bolobo é, kaba n’gondo
Kaba n’gondo, O n’gondo é, kaba n’gondo
