I
have never known the exact meaning of the lyrics of this
song.
All I know is that it is about a village in the region of
Fuuta.
My arrangement is a progression in drama, from the soft
beginning with hoddu and guitar until the climax with a
lotta strings. |

Njaangen
is about the need for literacy in Africa.
The arrangement oscillates between yella and reggae.
The middle break was originally without clear tempo so I
redid it, but Abou thought it changed the song too much
and that's why he didn't make more use of the song. |
