Lyrics - Abbo Kintay

Intro:
Abbo----oa,Abbo----oa, 
Abbo Abbo Abbo--oa, Abbo kintay. 
Abbo----oa,Abbo----oa, 
Abbo Abbo Abbo-oa, 
Abbo kintay.

Tell me now where are the houses, 
And the folks we used to know, 
Tell me now where are the cattle, 
And the crops they used to grow. 
All the small boats they have gone now, 
They used to lie along it's banks, 
Tell me now where are the fishes, 
Now that river is dead and gone.

Chorus:
Abbo abbo abbo-Abbo Kintay, 
Abbo Abbo Abbo Kintee-ay-ay, 
Abbo Abbo Abbo -Abbo Kintay, 
Abbo Abbo Abbo Kintee-ayyyy.

Tell me now where are the rivers, 
Where the waters used to flow, 
Tell me now where are the people, 
Who in the sunshine used to glow. 
All the children they have gone now, 
They used to play along it's banks, 
Tell me now where are the fishes, 
Now that river is dead and gone.

Chorus
