Yematbela Wof: by Asefa 1957 ethiopian calendar(e.c).

Asefa Abate was known as the best melody makers of his time- 1940s and 50s Ethiopian calendar; this clip just attests that. Here, you are hearing a song called ' Yematebela Wof'' the translation of this song goes as- a bird that can not be eaten" it was recorded back in 1957 e.c. I heard he dies in 1959 e.c.
