aida melesse - Celebration!

With white garments
from head to toe
Their arms stretch wide
Their voices rise
Their faces lit with delight
A new day, A new time,
A new year has arrived..

Their songs are heard from afar
Smoke covers the whole town,
They are gathering with their beloveds
Celebrating with good wishes..
they drink they dance
They laugh out loud
Welcoming hope to their hearts.

aida melesse
