Kis nay banaayaa

Learn the song with Chante and Itoya, Sing up.

Chanté and Itoya teach you the song and some Makaton signs for this gorgeous traditional song enjoyed by both Hindu and Urdu speaking communities. Please note: there is a translation error in this video. 'Poolo ko' should in fact refer to 'flowers' and 'matchlee ko' should refer to 'fish'.

• Click on the video to learn the whole song!
• You will find the lyrics at the end of this section.
• Open the pdf file and complete all the  activities.
• You can invite your family to join you!

                                                Enjoy!
