SONGS DO GO INTO EXTINCTION JUST LIKE ANIMALS AND PLANTS
LAS CANCIONES SE EXTINDEN COMO LOS ANIMALES
Certain animals have gone into extinction because they do not reproduce very often and also because people failed to domesticate them by preserving them in zoos. Rather, they hunted and killed them for food. 😢 This can also be said of some plants because of deforestation in many parts of the World. In the same vein, certain traditional songs have gone into extinction just because people who knew such songs failed to pass it on by teaching younger ones.
Ciertos animales se han extinguido porque no se reproducen muy a menudo y también porque las personas no lograron domesticarlos al preservarlos en zoológicos. Más bien, los cazaron y mataron para comer. 😢 Esto también se puede decir de algunas plantas debido a la deforestación en muchas partes del mundo. En la misma línea, ciertas canciones tradicionales se han extinguido solo porque las personas que conocían tales canciones no pudieron transmitirlas enseñándolas a los más jóvenes.

Often times, in schools and other social gatherings where people are usually called to make song renditions, people look out for trending new songs and they shy away from singing old songs that have beautiful lyrics and good messages. With this mind set and orientation, a lot of beautiful traditional songs are no longer known by the present generation. I am really thankful to my grand dad and in extention to my dad who never stopped teaching me old traditional songs especially traditional Latin Church songs. On several occasions my friends and class mates have expressed a kind of shock hearing me sing traditional songs that they have not even heard of not to talk of singing. As such, some of them jokularly call me traditionalist 😂
A menudo, en las escuelas y otras reuniones sociales donde se suele llamar a las personas para hacer interpretaciones de canciones, las personas buscan nuevas canciones de moda y evitan cantar canciones antiguas que tienen letras hermosas y buenos mensajes. Con esta mentalidad y orientación, muchas hermosas canciones tradicionales ya no son conocidas por la generación actual. Estoy muy agradecido con mi abuelo y, en extensión, con mi padre, que nunca dejó de enseñarme viejas canciones tradicionales, especialmente canciones tradicionales de la iglesia latina. En varias ocasiones mis amigos y compañeros de clase han manifestado una especie de sobresalto al oírme cantar canciones tradicionales que ni siquiera han escuchado para no hablar de cantar. Como tal, algunos de ellos en broma me llaman tradicionalista 😂

The point am emphasizing here hints on the fact that most people in this our generation are more interested in trending new songs thereby neglecting old and traditional songs with so much positive meanings and moral lessons. Such beautiful songs can be found across different religions and cultures such as; Judaism, Christianity, Islam etc. Be that as it may, people however place more values on tending new songs whose lyrics do not even have any reasonable moral significance.
El punto que estoy enfatizando aquí insinúa el hecho de que la mayoría de las personas en esta nuestra generación están más interesadas en las nuevas canciones, por lo que descuidan las canciones antiguas y tradicionales con tantos significados positivos y lecciones morales. Estas hermosas canciones se pueden encontrar en diferentes religiones y culturas, como; El judaísmo, el cristianismo, el islam, etc. Sea como fuere, la gente, sin embargo, valora más el escuchar nuevas canciones cuyas letras ni siquiera tienen un significado moral razonable.
Children in Etutekpe village - Kogi state (Niños en la aldea de Etutekpe- estado de Kogi)
With my orientation and understanding of the fact that a lot of beautiful songs have gone into extinction, I decided to spend a chunk of my eight weeks' activities in Kogi state (Ida diocese) in teaching traditional Latin songs to children and some few adults who had the time. To my greatest surprise, some of the adults have never heard such songs not to talk of the children. In other words, such songs were already extincting in their locality. Even though some of the songs are difficult to learn because of their mode of composition, the children were able to learn after I made them repeat each phrase severally. The children were so excited repeating such exciting Latin words and musical phrases. The latin words sounded so funny to them and they were glad making jokes and creating fun with them especially with their mode of composition. It was indeed energy sapping and time consuming but my joy lies in seeing children sing such old and interesting beautiful chants with their innocent beautiful voices.
Con mi orientación y comprensión del hecho de que muchas canciones hermosas se han extinguido, decidí pasar una parte de mis actividades de ocho semanas en el estado de Kogi (diócesis de Ida) enseñando canciones latinas tradicionales a niños y algunos adultos que tenían el tiempo. Para mi mayor sorpresa, algunos de los adultos nunca han escuchado tales canciones para no hablar de los niños. En otras palabras, tales canciones ya se estaban extinguiendo en su localidad. Aunque algunas de las canciones son difíciles de aprender debido a su modo de composición, los niños pudieron aprender después de que les hice repetir cada frase por separado. Los niños estaban muy emocionados repitiendo palabras latinas y frases musicales tan emocionantes. Las palabras en latín les sonaron muy divertidas y se alegraron de hacer bromas y crear diversión con ellas, especialmente con su modo de composición. De hecho, fue una pérdida de energía y consumió mucho tiempo, pero mi alegría radica en ver a los niños cantar conversaciones hermosas, antiguas e interesantes con sus hermosas voces inocentes.
Some of the Gregorian chants I took into considerations include;
- Kyrie
- Gloria
- Credo
- Pater Noster
- Santus
- Agnus Dei
In this entry, I have decided to share one of the chants I did with the children (the 'kyrie' Gregorian chant) I so much enjoy listening to their innocent beautiful voices and I'm really greatful and so fulfilled being able to pass this across to them. You will find me in the video accompaning them with the keyboard. I hope it makes meaning to you as you watch.

Me encontraréis en el vídeo acompañándolos con el teclado. Espero que tenga sentido para ti mientras miras.

This is so lovely. Indeed this generation has become so attracted to trending songs that has no meaning forgetting the songs of old that made so much sense.
