Brothers and Sisters Lyrics
 
Brothers and Sisters (Miera)
1. We all live in the same big house, no walls but one big ceiling, And if you haven't guessed it yet this house is our Earth a spinnin'.
(Chorus) Brothers and sisters, all one family, Brothers and sisters, you're the same as me.
2. We all share a swimming pool with the whales and the dolphins, There's a great green lawn out front with all our food a growin'.
(Chorus)
3. It doesn't matter your skin's color or how your name is spoken, 'Cause down inside we are all the same with our hearts and our love a pumpin'.
(Chorus)
 
Hello Europe (Miera)
1. Hello, hello,. How are you today? I'm fine, I'm fine, and I hope that you are too.
2. Hola, hola. Como esta usted. Estoy bien, estoy bien, estoy bien y tu.
3. Bon jour, bon jour, com-ment al-lez vous? Je suis bien, je suis bien, je suis bi-en et toi.
4. Ya-soo, ya-soo, ti-ka-nees e-si? Ka-la ime, ka-la ime, ka-la i-me e-si.
 
Yerro (Traditional)

Columbus Rap (Miera)
In 1492 Columbus sailed the ocean blue.
He tried to make the Asian shore by taking a route no one had gone before.
Due west he hit some island lands and thought he'ld made it to India land.
Strange new language, cloths and food, so he called the people Indians too.
But they weren't from India they had their own names of tribes and nations, none the same. Here's some North American tribes, if you know where they're from you could win a prize...
 
First Americans
...Kiowa, Cheyenne, Chinook, Sioux. Chippewa, Mochigan, and Hopi too. Navajo and Delaware, Americans the first ones here.
 
La Mariposa (Traditional)
 
Mi Chacra (Traditional/Miera)
1. Come now and see my farm for it is beautiful. Come now and see my farm for it is beautiful.
El gatito sounds like this...Meow, meow. El gatito sounds like this...Meow, meow.
(Chorus) Bienvenidos, bienvenidos, venid, venid, venid. Bienvenidos, bienvenidos, venid, venid, venid.
 
2. Come now and see my farm for it is beautiful. Come now and see my farm for it is beautiful.
El perito sounds like this...Woof, woof. El perito sounds like this...Woof, woof.
(Chorus)
 
All the animals on my farm are free.
I don't own them and they don't own me.
You too can play on my farm for free.
 
3. Vamanos y ver mi chacra que herrmosa. Vamanos y ver mi chacra que herrmosa.
El burrito asay asi. El burrito asay asi.
(Chorus)

 

 
Waltzin' Matilda (Traditional/Miera)
There was a jolly swag man who camped beside the billibong. Under the shade of the kooliba tree.
He sat and he sang and waited while his billy boiled, Singing who'll come a waltzin' Matilda with me?
(Chorus) Waltzin' Matilda, waltain' Matilda, Who'll come a waltzin' Matilda with me?
He sat and he sang and waited while his billy boiled, who'll come a waltzin' Matilda with me?
 
Up came a jam-buck to drink beside the billibong. Out jumped the swag man and grabbed him with glee,
He laughed as he stowed that jam-buck in his tucker bag singing
"You'll go a waltzin' Matilda with me."
(Chorus)
 
The jam-buck asked "Why you stowed me in your tucker bag?" The swag man replied "Well I've got to eat the."
"But I can show you how to grow all the food you'll ever need, If you'll go a waltzin' Matilda with me."
(Chorus)
 
The swag man agreed and they set off to farm the land, grew enough food to feed everybody.
Then the jam-buck left said "My work here is finished boys. Who'll go a watlzin' Matilda with me?"
(Chorus)

Get Up My Camel (Traditional/Miera)
Get up my camel, its time to travel. No time for rest and sleep, its time to travel.
Make haste, make haste my favorite camel. Its time for you and me to travel.
Come out of Asia on a two humped camel. Go into Africa on a one humped camel.
Make haste, make haste my favorite camel. Its time for you and me to travel.
 
Kwanza (Miera)
Kwanza, kwanza. Matunda ya kwanza.
Fruits, the first fruits. Sing for the first fruits.
 
Obwesana [Grandma, I hit my finger with a rock!] (Traditional West African)
Obwesana sana, obwesana sa. Obwesana sana, obwesana sa.
