Preface Serving to enhance crucial aspects of human culture and identity, music captures the complex sentiments of our lives. Whether it is at a wedding or a funeral, at home or at work, people sing to express all their emotions ranging from happiness to sorrow. Children’s songs are certainly no exception, as they celebrate the values, morals, and memories of childhood that humankind has cherished for years. Sharing these songs not only bridges gaps across cultures but also fosters solidarity amongst people from different communities. Recognizing music as a powerful tool of communication that spans across cultures, APCEIU has published this book to provide teachers with practical resources that can be utilized in classrooms. The book, complete with music DVD, includes 35 different songs sung in primary schools across Indonesia, Malaysia, Mongolia, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, Uzbekistan, and the Republic of Korea. The lyrics of each song are presented in both English and the respective country’s mother language to facilitate cross-cultural lessons. With information on children’s activities and the socio-historical and geographical context of the music, this publication will enable teachers to enrich their students’ knowledge on the diverse cultures and music of Asia. Publication would not have been possible without the support of the Ministry of Education of the Republic of Korea. Our inspiration for this project came from our intimate collaboration with the Ministry on the international teacher exchange programme between Korea and other Asian nations. I would also like to thank the UNESCO National Commissions and the music specialists from all seven countries who contributed songs and supporting materials. Their devotion and professionalism made this project possible. Also, I would like to express my appreciation to the composers and lyricists who have let us introduce their work in the book. I hope that this book and music will serve as an important resource in encouraging people to think about the values of “living together” in a global community.

CHUNG Utak Director, APCEIU

What is the Song About? This song tells the story of a mother’s love and concern for her grown son Si Patokaan, who has to go to work far from home. At a deeper level, the lyrics contain both prayer and motivation. Being far away from home is not easy. In the song, the mother describes loss, sickness, and death, not to scare the son but to give him a real picture of life. After explaining the risks of being far from home, the mother reminds the son that it is best to be careful.

What is the Song About? This song tells us about the process of making kue rimpi (also known as sale’ pisang), or dried banana (processed traditionally by drying in the sun). The song also tells us about the steps of drying bananas and how they are surrounded by small flying insects that love the scent of bananas. The insects are called bari-bari by the local people. At the end of the song, it tells us about an animal that scares children named bidawang, or Komodo dragon. Komodo dragon is the largest living species of lizards found on the Indonesian islands of Komodo, Rinca, Flores, Gili Motang, and Padar.

What is the Song About?

Zoom in

The multi-racial people of Malaysia make up the numerous types of dishes in the country. The sumptuous array of food and the wide spectrum of flavors certainly make Malaysia a melting pot of cuisines. Malaysian food can be separated into three different major cuisines: the Malay, Chinese and Indian. The staple food of the Malays is rice. Some of the popular foods are nasi lemak

1

Kari ayam

2

Popia

(rice cooked in coconut milk) and satay (grilled chunks of meat marinated with spices). The Malaysian Chinese have a range of food from different regions, such as the Hokkien Fried Mee (fried noodles with meat, vegetables and soy sauce), Hakka Yong Tau Foo (stuffed seafood bean curd), and the Teochew Char Kwey Teow (fried flattened noodles with cockles, prawns and bean sprouts). 3

The Malaysian Indians prefer hot and spicy flavors. Their main food contains either rice or

Asam laksa

4

Tose

bread (such as chappati and tose) which is served with various curries. The most popular one in Malaysia is the Roti Canai or Paratta (flat bread made with flour and served with curry and dhal) and the Mee Mamak (Indian-styled fried noodles with eggs, bean curd, bean sprouts, and lettuce).

What is the Song About? Tudung saji, food cover, is one of many Malay handicrafts. It is usually made out of pandanus leaves, pandan, rattan or bamboo, and woven like a mat. The rattan is formed into a round shape. The fine strands of rattan are made into yarn. The top pointed edge is made by bending the plaited mat. This is how tudung saji is shaped. The design or pattern of the tudung saji depends on the creativity of the maker. Sometimes, the processed pandanus leaves are dyed with desired colours before they are shaped and woven.

What Does It Mean?

A tudung saji is used mostly as a food cover to protect food from flies and dust. Tudung saji is various in its size and can also be used as beautiful decorations in homes and offices.

Tudung saji is the heritage of my culture It is beautiful and captivating It is used as a decoration in towns and villages As a symbol of an everlasting art A young lady works diligently Carefully plaiting the pine leaves Colourful and appealing to the eye Tudung saji is the nation’s heritage It is beautiful and used to cover the dishes It looks so attractive The worthy Malaysian culture A heritage that is upheld by everyone

What is the Song About? This song tells about pasar malam, which means night market. It is similar to a bazaar. A pasar malam begins its operating hours in the late afternoon and ends around 11:30 pm. Usually, the stalls are set up on a street in a residential area. The pasar malam opens only once a week in the same neighborhood. The seller rotates around to several different areas on different days of the week. The stalls normally sell goods such as vegetables, fruit, clothes, toys, and many other things at a cheap and reasonable price. The act of bargaining over price is commonly seen at the pasar malam.

What Does It Mean? Come on everybody Let’s go to the night market There are many people going No matter whether they are young or old I want to buy some food Banana fritters and apam balik Pau, sate, rojak and fruits For my mother and sister, too

What is the Song About? This song can be considered a song, a poem, or even be used in games. D. Tengerkhand, the lyricist, is a 15-year-old girl and her lyrics express the dreams and desires of children to love each other and live in unity. The chorus states that we are one family and our life rhythm is the same. Musician S. Altan-Uya wrote the music, which is why the song became one of Mongolian children’s favorite songs. His music avoids the typical use of pentatonic tones in children’s songs in Mongolia and uses half tones, which is commonly used worldwide. Such tones help children to adjust their voice easily.

We all live under the same rhythm

What is the Song About?

1. After viewing a photo or model of a bahay kubo, each student is asked to describe its distinct features. 2. Students can bring one vegetable to show in class and identify each vegetable shown to them.

This song begins with the phrase bahay kubo kahit munti, and proceeds to name each one

family member living in a hut among the rice fields and someone who tends the vegetables for a bountiful harvest for the benefit of his family and community.

Hut

Zoom in Sigarillas (Winged Beans)

Mani (Peanuts)

Recognized as the typical Filipino abode in rural pre-colonial, post-colonial, and contemporary Philippines, bahay kubo literally means “cube” house due to its shape. The English translation nipa hut, as it’s generally known today, draws attention to its limited dimensions (small) rather than its shape, as well as the conventional thatched roof made of nipa palm leaves.

Bawang (Garlic)

Still a typical scene among Filipino rice fields in the rural lowlands, the bahay kubo stands on stilts with its thatched nipa roof, floors, walls and windows usually made of bamboo slats. It exists among or near various vegetables in its surroundings. In a deeper sense, the song highlights the contrast between the size of the bahay kubo (small) and the abundance of the vegetables around it, subtly indicating wealth in humble surroundings. Bahay kubo also signifies the Filipino communal spirit of bayanihan, when the community helps transport the bahay kubo to another location on foot by carrying the entire relatively light structure on their shoulders.

What is the Song About? Rhyming end syllables, as in Enero-Pebrero, Septyembre-Oktubre, etc., facilitate children’s learning of the months. It also leads to further learning (among the older grades) about two significant facts common to Filipino culture. The first is the repeated word LUBILUBI (coconut-coconut) concluding the series of months in the first section, and the second is the word abaniko (fan) as mentioned in the ensuing section.

1. Children share the months they were born. 2. Have a singing game. One group can omit a month in the song, and the second group guesses the missing month by singing the musical phrase identified with that month. 3. View a photo of a coconut tree, or visit a coconut tree in the neighbourhood. 4. Ask the children to describe the usage of each part of the tree – its trunk, leaves, and fruits. 5. Only the first section (on the months) can be taught to students in lower grades. The entire song may be taught to students in higher grades.

Zoom in Concluding the months of the year (after December) with the words LUBILUBI indicates that the coconut tree bears fruit all year-round. Weather in the Philippines is generally hot and warm all year. Also referred by Filipinos as the Tree of Life, every part—from trunk to leaves—can be used for the following: cooking (meat, oil, and desserts), household purposes (husks and its fiber, brooms from leaf mid-ribs), construction (lumber from the trunk), and decorative landscaping. Because of the typical temperature and humidity of the dry season, the abaniko (fan) provides relief and antedates the electronically generated fan.

What is the Song About? Pakitong-kitong is a term applied to the multi-directions children take as they run around when they play together. This is a song initiated by a rhythmic play on the syllables of pakitong-kitong, and sings about a crab that moves likewise in many directions and, therefore, hard to catch. The one who succeeds in catching the crab gets to eat it.

1. Children can share how crabs are cooked in their families. 2. Children can share their observations on how parents and other adults eat crabs served on the table. 3. Children can share their experience of having tasted crab meat, if appropriate.

Zoom in Rivers in the Philippines are the sources of food because of the fish, crabs, shrimps, and other edible aquatic animals living in them. Fish ponds, shrimp ponds, and such, belonging to a family, are also found in certain regions in the Philippines. The days for “harvesting� at these fishponds with the help of friends or neighbors are usually transformed into a social gathering (picnic), with sharing of cooked food from the day’s catch, as a well-meant gesture of appreciation for assistance given to the hosts.

What is the Song About? This song describes the physical demands of planting rice: bending all day to place rice seedlings in the well-prepared soil and not able to sit or stand in order to accomplish the work. The second part encourages co-workers to stretch and renew strength and energy for their next day.

1. View stages of rice growing in the field – from the seedlings to full-grown plants heavy with grains and ready for harvesting. 2. Role-play as planters and harvesters through creative movements or acting. 3. Share observations about how rice is cooked in their respective homes with classmates.

Zoom in Rice is the staple food of Filipinos. Rice fields abound in the lowlands as well as in the uplands. Normally eaten to accompany meat, fish, or vegetables, different kinds of rice have different purposes, i.e. rice for desserts, upland rice for ricewine, roasted rice for flavouring, and rice combined with other sauces to enhance a special dinner. Farmers take advantage of the rainy season to prepare the soil for planting the rice seedlings. Based on information from the Department of Agriculture, the seasons for rice planting vary according to practices in various regions. After the rice planting phase, the cycle entails a growing period depending on the type of grain planted. It ranges from one and a half months to three months before the harvest season, which explains why some regions have three rice planting-harvesting seasons.

which Cebuanos regard as having little value then as well as today. In a humorous vein, the song somehow connects the small tambasakan, a mudskipper, to the value of the kura and to the dilapidated condition of the market. After a day of hard work, fishermen usually seek relaxation by drinking the native wine, tuba, alone or with fellow fishermen.

What is the Song About? This song has a folk-like tune based on the pentatonic scale and evokes the feeling of very playful movements of kite flying. The cheerful melody based on syncopated and dotted

1) Let’s make a kite and write your wishes and dreams. 2) Draw the kite wagging its tails and floating high up in the sky. 3) Divide the class into 2 groups. The first group sings the whole song while the second group imitates the movement of kites flying.

rhythmic pattern make the children move along with the kites. The neutral syllables, Ye-heya-di-ya, create the feeling of dynamic movements to the song by adding subtle excitement and fun. Children can sing this song in harmony with nature, such as the wind and the sunny sky, conveying their wishes and hopes into the sky.

Zoom in Kite-flying is the most enjoyable activity not only for children but also for adults as a communal activity. Children enjoy it as a joyful game and sports with friends and parents. Kite-flying also has diverse, meaningful symbolism. As an annual ritual celebration in January, it has a dual meaning: flying off stress and bad spirits into the sky, and embracing the happiness and fortune of the coming New Year. In contemporary Korean society, children enjoy it just as a fun game and activity with friends. In some primary schools nowadays, students do this activity as a ritual to commemorate the national wish for the unification of the Korean peninsula by letting their kites soar into the blue sky. Kite-flying is designated as an intangible cultural heritage in Seoul.

What Does It Mean? If you dip your hands in the green ocean If you dip your hands in the green ocean Your hands would be dyed green They become pretty green hands

What is the Song About? The beach in the summer is the ideal place to be in harmony with the water, sunshine, and friends. Like elsewhere, primary school students are eager to move around actively in nature. Dipping their hands and feet into the water means that their minds and bodies can interact with nature’s stream and beauty.

If you dip your feet in the stream The stream softly touches your feet The stream softly touches your feet

Zoom in The rhythmic pattern on duple meter and the lively tune on an F major tonality progression are the main themes of the song. This song also can be used for character building and holistic education. Using educational songs gives primary school students not only pleasure and entertainment but also a way to learn to live together and be happy.

• Feel the changing beat from 4/4 into 2/4. • Execute the 8th rest accurately in keeping with the steady beat.

What is the Song About? The title words Kopara and Pipinggnaa literally mean “Coir Fibres” and “Cucumbers.” They have no contextual relevance to the song. These words have been chosen for their contrasting sound in Sinhalese, with the latter word suitably rhyming with desanggnaa, which in effect translates to mean “I will punish you!” The lead singer chants the two lines of the refrain, warning the others not to look

in the song, the others respond by repeating the lines in chorus. The song makes puhulan fruit harvested during the New Year period. These were features eagerly awaited by children of past generations. The song also recalls other traditional children’s games —­Kundu and Vachchi, which is similar to Hop-scotch (children draw lines with numbers on the ground and toss small objects in the numbered space. Then, they hop or jump on the space without the object and retrieve the object at the end). The song highlights the changing times and closes with the lament that modern-day toys have invaded the village and distracted children from their pursuits of yore.

This song is based on one of the traditional folk games played by children mainly during the festive New Year season in April when the sun enters the first zodiacal sign. All family members return to their village homes from the cities to celebrate this festival. The home is the focal point of activities and family ties are strongly upheld in traditional customs. Once the New Year rituals have been carefully observed, much enjoyment is found in games and activities for every age-group in the family. Children’s games are plentiful and the music in this song seeks to preserve the authentic flavour of these games.

What is the Song About? This song relates how the ponderous tuskers tread all in a row! Following them are the dancers stepping in time to the rhythm of the throbbing drums. The acrobatic light-bearers spin their flaming torches fast, showing them circling fire-balls. Little children, clad in white traditional dress, walk in procession, carrying their flags, and shout “Saadhu! Saadhu!” — a reverential acclamation to the Buddha. Others carry offerings of flowers or large rounded sunshades which have been used since ancient times in royal or religious processions. At last, the perahera wends its way to the village temple.

Sri Lankan culture is closely associated with the tradition of the village, and many activities of the village often revolve around its temple. This song describes the Buddhist perahera-procession. When an object of veneration is moved to or from the temple, it is taken in a grand procession. Peraheras are usually colourful pageants led by a variety of dancers, drummers, acrobats, jugglers, and flag-bearers. But the main attraction would be the splendidly decked majestic elephants, with the principal tusker carrying the article of veneration.

Early each morning, the young ones come running out from their places of concealment, and they are fresh and eager to board their bus that cheerfully beckons them to go to school. They are advised not to scribble on or scrape the interior, nor are they to damage the upholstery of the bus. It should be cared for as their own property. They are told not to quarrel with each other or fight with stones and sand in order to gain precedence in entering the vehicle. Children who stand in a row in an orderly fashion to board the bus are compared to the pearls strung on a necklace.

What is the Song About? This song, sung by a sister of a mischievous younger brother, conveys the love and unity between the siblings. In Sri Lanka, close family ties are frequently upheld from a very early age well into adulthood. An adoring sister is delighted by her younger brother dancing in his little checked sarong — a traditional waist-high drape worn by males. Although he is quarrelsome

What Does It Mean?

and mischievous, he is nevertheless a fond little brother, so precious to her. When she makes her little play-house, he demolishes it and runs away! Yet, he will cry and beg for money when he wants to buy sweets. He goes to school smartly with his bag in hand, but returns with a broken slate-pencil. He would cheerfully sing little songs and happily dance for her amusement.

Chorus: Dressed in a little checked sarong, dances my younger brother Quarrelling often at home is my little brother My younger brother is mischievous but adorable My younger brother is mischievous but adorable 1. I happily make a play-house He tumbles all my play-things and runs away He pleads and cries for money to buy sweet My brother is so naughty, yet he is good Chorus 2. To school he goes carrying a bag in hand He returns with a broken slate-pencil He sings little songs so lovingly and childishly He dances happily, my brother is precious Chorus

What is the Song About? This song was used as the theme song in a children’s television-drama entitled “Pungchi Patauw (The Little Ones).” The song reflects the innocence of childhood. It describes the delight of children in being friendly. Like a bunch of flowerbuds, they will remain friendly. They do not wish to grow up with the undesirable traits of adults. Is cruelty the basis for adulthood? They wonder.

Terakmi, Ko‘k Terak. Players, usually children, are equally divided into two groups and form two lines looking toward each other. The players standing in each line join hands at a distance of outstretched arms. Upon signal, one player standing in line runs in the direction of the children standing in the other line. The players standing in the line call a name of one of the participants of the opposite team. Only one name can be called at a time. The player, whose name is called, runs to the opposite line to break off the chain formed by players. If he/she manages to break off the chain, he/she comes back to the rank taking away with himself/herself someone from the opposite team where the chain is broken off. If the runner doesn’t manage to break off the chain, he/she joins the opposite team, increasing the number of the opposite team. The chain can be broken off at any point but only on one attempt!

Asia-Pacific Centre of Education for International Understanding (APCEIU) was established in 2000 as a UNESCO Category II centre according to the agreement between UNESCO and the Government of Republic of Korea.

Singing Asia to Live Together

Guided by the UNESCO Recommendation concerning Education for International Understanding, Co-operation and Peace and Education relating to Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms (1974) and the Declaration and Integrated Framework of Acton on Education for Peace, Human Rights and Democracy (1995), APCEIU seeks to promote Education for International Understanding (EIU), working with 47 UNESCO Member States in the Asia-Pacific region. APCEIU also works in line with the UN Global Education First Initiative (GEFI) launched in 2012 by UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon in cultivating global citizenship. EIU empowers learners to be global citizens with knowledge, skills and attitudes for Living Together to support cultural diversity, peace, human rights and sustainable development in the globalized 21st century.
