Shiri yakanaka

This is a Shona nursery rhyme that I illustrated for a children's picture book pitch. In English the lyrics are:

Shiri Yakanaka (Such a Lovely Bird)

Such a lovely bird, so high up in the tree.
Come back, come back, come back home to me.

Look at me spin now, look at me fly,

Up among the clouds, so high in the sky!
