Sister Manbo is a spirit in the Congo-derived tradition of Soucri. She is the Mother of all the lwas. Your mother will always have a soft spot in her heart for you; she will always support you. Your mother is the one person you can call on when you are in trouble.
lyrics
“Se Manbo”
(Traditional from Soucri)
Sè Manbo, Sè Manbo, Sè Manbo

Jou m ankòlè m konnen sa k fanmi mwen!
Sister Manbo, Sister Manbo, Sister Manbo,
This Sister Manbo!
When I am trouble, I found out who is family!
