What “Awe, Awe, Mon Bebe” Means
The Central African Republic has a well-loved Sango lullaby tradition, including songs like ‘Awe bebe’, often sung to soothe a crying baby. This original lullaby (blending Sango’s tender ‘awe’ with French, the country’s two official languages) borrows that same comforting spirit, set beside the Ubangi River.
