Eh soom boo kaway
Kedou, kadee.
Eh soom boo kaway
Kedou, kadee.
Kedou, kadee, kedou, kadee.
Ahhhhh,
Soom boom kaway,
Kedou, kadee.
I cannot find a translation.

I learned this from another music teacher in our district…..
translation – the clouds are gathering, paddle faster.
4-6 students in a boat
Measures 1-4 : paddle 4 beats on each side
Measures 5-6 : Paddle 2 beats on each side
measures 7-8 : raise up arms and look at the clouds
Measures 9-10 : Paddle Faster!!!
Great! Thank you!
