Besub Tey Jii

Well folks, this is it. The girl who didn't even go camping until her sophomore year of college has packed up her $11 office max backpack and is headed to the interior of Senegal. It still feels pretty unbelievable. I'm excited for this adventure, not just because of where we're going or how we're getting there, but just for the simple fact that we are going. I have never done anything even remotely like this in my entire life.

Besub tey jii, besub tey jii
Yalla moo ko def, Yalla moo ko def
Beg naa ci lool, beg naa ci lool
Sama xol di sedd, sama xol de sedd
Besub tey jii Yalla moo ko def
Beg naa ci lool sama xol di sedd
Besub tey jii, besub tey jii
Yalla moo ko def.

This is the second song I now know in three languages, and I find it to be very appropriate for today. This is the day that the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it.

I can't wait to see what God has planned for this week! I'm sure I'll have a lot to say once we get back sometime Saturday night, but for now - ba bennen!
