Answer:
The examination of the sonnet "The tune of the ladies of my territory" by Oumar Farouk Sesay is-
- The artist Oumar Farouk Sesay says that the ladies in his time used to sing tunes whose verses spoke to the hardwork that they endured during furrowing of land, the agony they endured when they were treated as hirelings, cuffed and abuseed.
- The melody spoke to the torment, the affection, empathy and so on. The tune spoke to their method for living and the historical backdrop of time they saw.
- Be that as it may, presently every one of those ladies were dead and the tune and verses were no more. They verse were presently utilized by neighborhood writers and artists. The voice of the tune was dead at this point. The melody was never again ameliorating.
