We love our kitchen staff! I think I have already mentioned that we know it is dinner time when the kitchen staff sings. I have been bugging Magdalena, one of our master chefs, to teach us one of these songs and today after lunch we got to learn one! It is in Portuguese and Makua (the language spoken in Nampula) and even has motions! One person sings the main part and everyone repeats after them. Here is the Portuguese section:
vamos fazer assim
quando vamos aos ceus
quando se encontra com o Senhor
quando se encontra com irmaos.
The translation is basically:
we’re gonna do like this
when we get to heaven (wave your hands in the air)
when we meet the Lord (clap your hands down low)
when we meet our brothers (give the person next to you a high ten!)
