A song (vise) is a poem, or a set of words, set to music, and meant to be sung. They are often told from a personal perspective. The genre contains a range of sub-genres based on content or function, including love songs, work songs, broadside ballads and children's songs. Many of the songs have been passed down through generations and over large areas, which has led to different variations in both text and melody.
