    Story Behind the Song
    "Asante" is the Swahili word for "thanks" This is a song tells of the role of music in our lives.

    Lyrics
    First came voice
    Then came drum
    Together, under the African sun
    And their child was the dance
    And the people sang a song of thanks
    Yelelele yelelele Asante
    Song for their work
    Song for their play
    Song to keep all bad spirits away
    For the mother giving birth
    For the old ones living under the earth
    Yelelele yelelele Asante
    Well they says those days are gone
    But the rhythm forever and ever lives on
    In our hearts and in our minds
    Calling us home
    From a far away time
    Yelelele yelelele Asante
