English Lyrics

  • Segking – segking , Segko segko
  • Guests have come from afar
  • Adorned in beaded garments
  • Their Vests of Animal Skin adorned with shining disks of giant clams
  • Their skirts clanging with glass beads
  • Segking – segking , Segko segko
  • Segko segko, segking - segking
  • Guests have come from neighbouring lands
  • Adorned in garments of jingling bells
  • Their costumes of special dazing cloth
  • Their skirts replete with little jingling bells
  • Segko segko, segking - segking
