What are lyrics to "Coumba" by Orchestra Baobab? Its in French. I
understand most of the song, but not all. Could you give me the
complete lyrics (in French) and an English translation?

My favourite album of all time. I'll try and remember to attempt a
transcription next time I listen to it, but my French isn't amazing.

In the meantime, the following paragaph may be of incidental interest.
It's from fROOTS magazine (no 221; Nov 2001; p23) in an article called
"Baobab Bounce Back" by Lucy Duran:
 "Have you noticed that my songs are always very 
 nostalgic?" [Rudy Gomis] asked me later on. "My
 music is sad. Like "Coumba". That was the name
 of my first wife. Te day I went to court for our
 divorce, I composed this song for her."

Hence all the "Coumba, s'est toi qui m'a quitte", I guess. More to
follow if my linguistic skill's up to me.
 

[Again incidentally, Lucy Duran is a bit of a Baobab whizz: see
