Ewwoooooooo!!!! nyajonyobe sudu inna, nyajonyobe sudu baba, fulbe rimbe e rimaybe, pullo funa pullo, fulfulde duna goto, mi noddi o hande

That is to say calling all Fulani of a social class rich and poor (nomad and non-nomadic). Fulani is Fulani, Fulfulde is one language, I call you today.

aaaah Fulbe Ketine, Ketine fulbe, miden njawteon

Sudu can mean many things in Fulfulde, it can mean room or domain. This is the song calling all Fulani from all regions. Allah accu lawol fulbe. Fouta Tooro, Fouta Djallon, Maasina, Adamawa, Sokoto Empire (Western Niger), Ghana, she mentions all the regions the Fulani live this is a song for the uniting of the proud Fulani. Therefore all types of Fulani are shown in this song, Wodaabe, Gowabe, Geloji, etc. etc.

The way Fulani culture seems as if it has never changed since pre-colonial times is amazing.
