does anyone have the lyrics to this song in English? I love this song so much. I know the overall meaning but I would like to know the words.

@norcalnupe , yeah nice song he, i can try to find out the lyrics in english from the singers, ok?

[norcalnupe]

@rob2508 That would be amazing! Thanks so much! Mini Amba is coming for me in 4 days. I'm moving to Ghana, West Africa. I know Mini Amba is a snake that saved an entire village from starvation by moving them to more fertile ground. That exact same thing is happening to me right now so this song means a lot to me.

@norcalnupe that's nice, moving to ghana, from where are you originally? there is also a live version on my account, but unfortunately you hear me talk thru it.

@rob2508 I'm moving to Ghana from the state of Georgia in the United States. I worked in the banking industry for years until the economy melted down on me. Now that I'm moving to Africa I feel great because I get the opportunity to live a brand new life. Thus, the importance of the song.
