Obwisana sa, nana
Obwisana sa

Translation

The rock has crushed my hand, grandma
The rock has crushed my hand.

Game

This is an easy stone-passing game. Have students sit in a circle. Every student taps the stone in front of him/herself on each downbeat. The only time the stone is passed to the right is on the downbeat of the last measure.
