LYRICS: CORONA VIRUS ALERT
(Kyagulanyi Ssentamu (Bobi Wine) & Nubian Li)

The bad news is that everyone is a potential victim
But the good news is that everyone is a potential solution

Sensitize the masses to sanitize
Keep a social distance and quarantine
The coronavirus is sweeping over mankind
Everybody must be alert
It’s a global pandemic we can never take for granted
Everybody must take charge

The corona virus disease should not be taken lightly
Everybody must be alert
It’s a matter of life we can never take for granted
Everybody must take charge

Discipline and personal hygiene
And make sure you regularly wash your hands
Keep a distance from everyone
Report anything like a symptom

Serious fever is a symptom
Dry cough is a symptom
Even is sneezing a symptom
Itchy eyes …and flu is a symptom

If you get sick…
Please do not transmit the disease
Isolate yourself from the public
Be patriotic
See what is happening in Italy
Many people have died
Prevention is better than cure

The corona virus is sweeping over mankind
Everybody must be alert
It’s a global pandemic we can never take for granted
Everybody must take charge

The corona virus disease should not be taken lightly
Everybody must be alert
It’s a matter of life we can never take for granted
Everybody must take charge

The corona virus is sweeping over mankind
Everybody must be alert

INFORMATION ABOUT BOBI WINE
From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Kyagulanyi_Ssentamu
"Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu (born 12 February 1982), known by his stage name Bobi Wine, is a Ugandan politician, activist, singer, actor, businessman and philanthropist. As of 11 July 2017, he serves as the member of parliament representing Kyadondo East constituency in Wakiso District, in Uganda's Central Region.[1]

Music career
Kyagulanyi began his music career in the early 2000s, and adapted the stage name Bobi Wine. His first singles "Akagoma", "Funtula", and "Sunda" (featuring Ziggy D) brought him success in the East African music scene.[4] His music has been characterised as reggae, dancehall, and afrobeat, often with a socially conscious message. He was the leader of the group Fire Base Crew[6] until its disbandment, after which he started a new group known as Ghetto Republic of Uganja.[7] He has released more than 70 songs over 15 years.[4]

In 2016, his song "Kiwani" was featured on the soundtrack for the Disney movie Queen of Katwe.[8]

Film career
Wine is also a film actor, mainly starring in local Ugandan movies.[4]...

Political career
In April 2017, Kyagulanyi announced his candidacy for parliament in an upcoming by-election for the Kyaddondo East Constituency. His door-to-door walking campaign attracted attention both in Uganda and abroad.[7][11] He won the contest by a wide margin, beating two seasoned candidates: Sitenda Sebalu of the ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM) party and Apollo Kantinti of the main opposition party Forum for Democratic Change (FDC).[1][12][1]

[...]

Kyagulanyi was arrested on 15 August 2018 for possible charges of unlawful possession of firearms and incitement to violence,[16] after which he was brought in front of a military court and charged with the former the following day. The Times reported that Kyagulanyi appeared to have been beaten before appearing in court.[17] Kampala Lord Mayor Erias Lukwago, a lawyer who has represented detained MPs, said that Kyagulanyi was in a worrying state of health and needed urgent medical attention.[18] The government has repeatedly denied allegations of torture. Ugandan opposition leader Kizza Besigye called a press conference, where he demanded the MP's immediate release.[19]

With popular protests growing in Uganda demanding Kyagulanyi's release, and heated discussions in the Ugandan Parliament, the Ugandan State prosecution withdrew the charges filed during Kyagulanyi's second appearance in front of the General Court Martial in Gulu on 23 August 2018. The prosecution indicated it would further pursue possible charges in a civilian court for a possible trial of the MP.[20] Upon release, Kyagulanyi was rearrested and charged with treason in a civilian court.[21] In September 2018, Kyagulanyi was released on bail and travelled to the United States for medical treatment for injuries he allegedly received in custody.[22] The Ugandan government banned his supporters from gathering on the day of his release, and on the day of his return from the United States.[22][23] He eventually addressed his supporters in a gathering outside his home upon his return to Uganda on 20 September 2018.[24]

In August 2019, Kyagulanyi was charged with "intent to alarm, annoy or ridicule" President Museveni for his role in the Arua incident the previous year. The charges came a day after the death of Ziggy Wine, a fellow Ugandan musician and staunch critic of Museveni, who was kidnapped and tortured by unknown assailants.

[...]

2021 presidential election
On 24 July 2019, Kyagulanyi formally announced his bid to run for President in the 2021 general election.[33]

Humanitarian work
Kyagulanyi has supported several practical projects to improve conditions for the poor.[3] In 2012, he started a campaign to promote more regular cleaning in hospitals, sanitation, garbage management, and hand washing to prevent disease.

[...]

Controversies
Wine is often outspoken about political and social issues in Uganda, generating some controversy. Until January 2019, he had a long-standing feud with fellow Ugandan musician Bebe Cool, who has sung in support of President Museveni and the NRM, while Kyagulanyi has supported opposition interests."...

INFORMATION ABOUT THE SONG "CORONA VIRUS ALERT"
From https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2020/mar/26/sensitise-to-sanitise-bobi-wine-uses-song-to-fight-coronavirus-across-africa

'Sensitise to sanitise': Bobi Wine uses song to fight coronavirus across Africa

by Guardian staff, Thu 26 Mar 2020

Ugandan star among those taking to the airwaves with a message on how to avoid spreading Covid-19
"Bobi Wine, a Ugandan musician and rising political force, has joined the likes of footballer-turned-president George Weah in resorting to song to help stem the spread of coronavirus in Africa.

Wine, whose real name is Robert Kyagulanyi, worked with fellow artist Nubian Li to release a song on Wednesday laced with east Africa’s signature rhumba melodies about the importance of personal hygiene.

“The bad news is that everyone is a potential victim,” Wine sings. “But the good news is that everyone is a potential solution.”

The pair exhort people to regularly wash hands, keep a distance and look out for symptoms such as a fever and cough.

Uganda on Wednesday confirmed five more cases of Covid-19, bringing its tally to 14, four days after it recorded its first patient. President Yoweri Museveni’s government has already taken a raft of measures including sealing off borders, closing bars, and banning public gatherings to contain the outbreak.

[...]

Uganda has a history of using music to tackle other outbreaks.

Songs about HIV/Aids by another Ugandan crooner Philly Bongoley Lutaaya helped spread awareness in the 1980s and 90s and bring down sky-high infection rates. He later died of the disease.

Joel Ssenyonyi, Bobi Wine’s spokesman, told Reuters the singer had distributed press releases on Covid-19 and handed out jerry cans and soap to improve hand washing in communities.

“One other creative way of communicating is through music,” Ssenyonyi said. “Most people love to listen to music so what better way to put across a message than through music.”

SONG LYRICS - WELCOME VISITORS*

Lead singer - I’m so excited at the top of the mountain. **
I feel joy down in my heart.
That’s why I’m singing and dancing.
You are welcome.
We love you, visitors.***
You are welcome.****
We love you, visitors.

Lead & Group:
Oh, I’m so excited at the top of the mountain. **
I feel joy down in my heart.
That’s why I’m singing and dancing.
You are welcome.
We love you, visitors.
You are welcome.
We love you, visitors.

[Repeat the entire verse without the word "Oh"]

Lead Singer - My name is ___ [singer gives his or her first name or nickname]
I feel joy [continue the verse as given above].

[Group & lead sing together]
I’m so excited [continue the verse as given above one time]

[Repeat this verse with a new lead singer who says his or her first name. Continue this pattern with new lead singers. End the song with the group and lead singing the verse together as given above. 2x]

Transcription by Azizi Powell from this video. Additions and corrections are welcome.

*I'm not sure if this is the song's title or not.

**Thanks, Steve K for your suggestion about the word "visitor" for the last word in this line. That makes a lot of sense. I was unsure of this word, and thought that it might be "mister" which wouldn't be correct English if there were male visitors and female visitors.

***Comment revised May 1, 2016 - Previously I wrote that adding the English word "at" would result in this sentence making more sense in English. However, it occurs to me that "I'm so excited the top of the mountain" may mean that "My excitement is as high as the top of the mountain".

**** The sentence "You are welcome" is used two ways in English: 1. to let a person know that you are glad that he or she has come to visit and 2. as a response to the sentence "Thank you". Therefore, it may be better to add the word "here" to the end of "You are welcome" in this song as a way of making the meaning of those words clearer.

An alternative version of those lines in that song is:

We love you, welcome.
You are welcome here.
We love you, welcome.

-snip-
One more suggestion is to change the word "down" in "down in my heart" to the word "deep". I make that suggestion because "deep in my heart" is the more commonly found usage in American English. However, "down in my heart" may be common in other types of English, and it's meaning is clear either way.

I think it would be great if this English language song was translated into Swahili or another traditional language spoken in Uganda, East Africa. Hopefully, someone will do that and post those words in that video's YouTube viewer comment thread or here.

For instance, according to the Google translate feature "we love you" is "tunakupenda". I think that word is pronounced "too-nah-koo-PEN-dah). Also, according to the Google translate feature the word "welcome" is "kuwakaribisha". I think that word is pronounced "koo-wah-kah-re-BE-shah".
