Original description
en
A heyalo song, by Ulahi and Eyoobo. In Kaluli conception, the two voices do not "follow" one another, but "lift up over" (dulugu molab), in a sort of echoing.
The heyala songs may be performed either during ceremonies or for personal diversion. Composed in the traditional style, for some ceremonies held about 1970, this heyalo is sung here by two women during a pause from work in the gardens.
The text compares some children to doves, flying off, to a distant school, stopping at each village to tell their parents, brothers and sisters : "l won't be coming back".
