1.
TIZAAR KUTUOR GMETAR (WE ALL CANNOT BE THE SAME)
God
has created us all so that we are not the same. We have different
talents.
Some of us are policemen others are nurses and teachers, some of us
are
soldiers and others are farmers and musicians.
2. NIESALA BETERISOB (HUMAN BEING HAS NO OWNER)
When
a baby is born it is the responsibility of the parents to bring that
child up.
But when the baby grows up it belongs to everybody as it has
no owner.
3. ASAAKUMMENE TENGDAR (OUR ANCESTORS' TIME)
In
the olden days the world was a nice place to live in . Today the
same cannot be said. The world is now full of distrust, armed robberies,
lies,
wars and all sorts of vices.
4. N'YONG (1 AM ALONE)
In
this song Aaron is saying that he is the only born of his parents.
He
is asking God to bless him and his music so that he can take care of
his poor
and ageing parents and his other relatives who live in his village
of Tanchara.
5. YEVENKETINOTAA (LET'S LOVE ONE ANOTHER)
If
someone loves you, give them love in return.
When God created us he said
that we should love each other.
6. BIBIKUWONWULU
(A CHILD WHO DOESN'T LISTEN TO ADVICE)
A child who does not take good
advice will have a bleak future.
7. DINA-El (AS FOR TODAY)
A lady pretends to love a young man who buys things for
her
and takes her out to many places. However, when the man proposes love
to her she says no. Realising that the women has no love for him the
man
demands back the gifts he gave her.
8. POOGLE (LADY)
This song advises men and women to look before the leap
into a love affair:
otherwise they may regret later on.
9. DAGAABA FRAFRA
This is a peace song for the neighbouring Dagaaba and Frafra people northern
Ghana - and indeed the
people of Ghana and the world as a whole. Everyone should unite, as whether Dagaaba
or Frafra, or white
or black, as the whole world is one.
10. ABETAAYEL (WHO HAS NO PROBLEM?)
Everyone has one sort of problem or another. Poor people start to think
after
eating about how they will get food the next day. On the other hand
rich
people cannot sleep at night as they are always thinking that
thieves will take their property away
11. TIERE NAAGMI (THINK OF GOD)
People should think of God every day as it is
God who created us.
12. GYAE CORRUPTION (STOP CORRUPTION:
sung in the Twi language) Corruption is
eating into many countries
in Africa and elsewhere. Some use the pen for evil
purposes, some use
their knowledge in a bad way, whilst others just go and obtain
guns to rob people.
13. GOD'S AND MAN'S CREATION
Sometimes people get annoyed and disappointed when
the machines they
have created go wrong. They want their machines to function
properly.
Likewise God, who created us, wants us to obey him and is disappointed
when we do not.
14. BARIKA (THANK YOU)
In this song Aaron is thanking God for his talent
15. KONKONSA (GOSSIP)
Gossip or backbiting is not good. It can spoil friendship and
marriages - and
even sometimes lead to death.

in the Twi language
