I’m a performing artist and we’ve decided to add the song "Afternoon" to our set. I purchased the sheet music but the lyrics were not included. I’ve been trying to find the original and/or translated words and not sure about the versions we’re finding. It seems like they’re missing the 2nd verse. Does anyone have the lyrics for this song. Like I said, I’d like to get it in the original language and translate it so that we can decide how we’re going to do it. Thanks in advance for any help given! Michael

Bookmark and Share bt1972 : When I viewed the lyrics to Afternoon, it was a mix of Bona’s native language, English words and wordless vocalizations. At least that’s my take.

Bookmark and Share The great Cameroon-born multi-instrumentalist Richard Bona sings on several tracks on the Speaking of Now record, including "Another Life," "You," and "Afternoon." These are all wordless vocals, I believe, in keeping with a long- standing PMG tradition, where the singer’s voice becomes another instrument, allowing the listener to supply the particular meaning and emotion behind them.
