| Description |
While the song maybe the same as Track 2, this track, however, is recited by an old man to soothe a baby to sleep and in a little louder tone, which may mean that the baby is still awake. The song will help put the baby to sleep after singing the version frequently. This is another aspect of iTaukei intangible cultural heritage in as far as lullabies and rhymes are concerned. The effect and impact of an elderly woman and man singing the same lullaby to the child differ greatly and are used in different situations. For example, the child may be noisy and crying endlessly; therefore, an elderly male sings the song to stop the child from crying. An elderly woman, on the other hand, can sing the same to put the baby to sleep if the latter is finding difficulty in sleeping. |
