*Kasa Kab Song* (Play Dance)🐢🌊 Lyrics by Peggy Misi Kayn igil kayn kazil - New life, newborn Kakur poelamiz migi waru kaziiil - Eggs hatching baby turtles Zilami malupa sagulp a a e ee - Running down to the sea to play Waru wayi waru wayi e - Turtle swim, turtle swim Ina malu nginu lag - The sea is your home Waru thuru waru thuru - Turtle tracks, turtle tracks Thawalaw buthunu thawalaw buthunu - Down on the beach, down on the beach Waru thuru waru thuru - Turtle tracks, turtle tracks Thawalaw buthunu thawalaw buthunu - Down on the beach, down on the beach Gabu malupa bawayan thayamin -Towards the deep sea, they are being pushed by the waves Thanamun sagul koeyza - They are very playful Ayawal mulupa sagulpa - Come down to the sea to play Kayn lag thanamun malu e - Their new home, the sea Waru wayi waru wayi e - Turtle swim, turtle swim Ina malu nginu lag - The sea is your home Waru wayi waru wayi e - Turtle swim, turtle swim Ina malu nginu lag - The sea is your home
From an article from Peggy Misi, about "sit down dancing" and the story behind this song: With sit down dances, you usually sit on the spot in babuk (crossed legged). You do the movements with your upper body, your hands, your fingers, your head… but this dance I created for *Turtle,* named *Kasa Kab (play dance)* was a little different. It was choreographed to be like the little turtles waddling down to the water after hatching from their eggs. The zig zag from the top of the stage coming down stage, that’s like the little turtles coming down and into the water before getting to the deep water. I created motifs of gently holding the baby turtles, of their flippers swimming and of letting them go into the water. These simple yet powerful gestures are a part of the story telling and sit with the words of the song.
