In the beginning was,
The Ab-Original Woman

Then The Ab-Original Woman,

gave birth to Ɣɛ

From this point,
The Ab-Original Woman,
gave birth to her family of various Ethnicities

And The Ab-Original Woman and her family of various Ethnicities
inhabited every inch of the Earth

And in those bygone days,
There was Great Harmony,
on Earth
simply because,
the children of Chaos,
have not yet,
appeared on Earth!

The Ab-Original Woman
and her family of various Ethnicities,
also gave birth to
The Prima Language
accompanied with,
The Prima Glyphs
Representing,
The Prima Ancient Sounds
or Phonemes

And it was from The Prima Language,
that all languages of the Earth were born

Though, today
The Sacred History, of
The Ab-Original Woman and her family of various Ethnicities,
has been

Co-opted and Doctored and Corrupted
by the incorrigible,
children of Chaos

In spite of all that,

The Ab-Original Woman, still has something that:

In the words of
Robert Nestor Marley,
aka Bob Marley
and The Wailers,
once sung:

"The Ab-Original Woman, and her Family of various Ethnicities,
have something,
They Can Never Take Away"

A Gift Given to Her by
The Great Universal Spirit,

that no Robber, can Rob
and no Murderer, can Murder

simply because
The Gift,
We speak of,
Is Inside
The Ab-Original Woman

The Ab-Original Woman's possessions, may be stolen

The Ab-Original Woman's land,
may be robbed

but This Gift, Given to,
The Ab-Original Woman,
as Robert Nestor Marley, once prophesied,

"Can Never Be Taken Away"

simply because
The Gift,
We Speak of,
Is Inside,
The Ab-Original Woman
and her family of various Ethnicities

It is possible to follow changes and keep the traditions of all kind alive. We just need to be proud of ourselves. Ghana is beautiful❤️

Ghanaian people have music in their souls both when singing and dancing. This is a precious natural gift.

Hello to fans of music from Ghana! Can anyone help me find the lyrics (and a translation) to the song "Agogbagba" from the Ewe people? Here is a link to a very nice community performance: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fjMwonER_DM

@kwamebruno

Nicely done, with some beautifully shot performances. And Ghana looks especially green and fresh.

I wish you had identified the musicians while they were playing, not just Koo Nimo (later tagged when he speaks) or King Ayisoba (the guy with the single-stringed lute), but the music troupes, or communities, or even just the regions. Without these acknowledgements, an uninformed viewer might well think that Ghanaian music has no professional practitioners, that it is simply folkloric, however well costumed. Koo Nimo, for example, with his Spanish guitar, is a long time proponent of a musical form that stems from the early 20th century that went electric in later years, and led into the vibrant Ghanaian pop music scene of today, far more cosmopolitan than the brief glimpse of some electric guitars of an amateur band would suggest. Perhaps that's a topic for a separate film. But Ghanaian music keeps up with the times.

@XploreFilm

Thank you. Very good messages and video. My wife and I have traveled and filmed quite a bit in West Africa on 3 excursions that were a bit, backpacker. . You captured it, time to go back.
