Hi i wrote to a records company and they sent me back the lyrics to Kothbiro by Ayub Ogada

Kothbiro (rain is coming)

Aaa aye aye
aye aye
aye aye

Auma do you hear what I say
The rain is on it's way
Return our cattle home

Yaye the children
What is it that you think you do?
The rain is on it's way r
Return our cattle home.

I am presuming that it was the english translation that you wanted but if you want it in the spoken language let me know and I'll pass it on. x

I believe Kothbiro translates as 'RAIN' in English, but I can't be sure, due to the difference of literal format of Kenyan compared with English.As for the rest of the lyrics in the song, I would dearly like to know the exact translation too, but,in my case, I must wait for Uni to resume if I have any chance of deciphering to lyrics.
I'll hold my breath for a result-who wants to see a poor old Australian turn blue? hehe.

You probably have it already but if not go to link below

English translation by Ayub Ogada himself in booklet of CD:

Dear children,
the rain is coming,
bring the cows in the cattle,
bring in our wealth

I've been looking for this translation forever. You're sure about this? I use Kothbiro as the music for a gruop meditation I conduct (for world peace). Turns out these lyrics are perfect for that theme!

Hi there! :-) Yes, as I said, it's transcripiton from booklet for CD "En Mana Kuoyo" (which I own) and there is sign of Ayub Ogada under it. Well, at the start of translation he writes anything else: "Another song concerning cattle-herding." And after this sentence there is English translation of the song in booklet (which you can read now here :-)).

Well, before Constant Gardener they used this song for one cheap sci-fi movie.
