By specific instruction from RJ, the Tinkers have not found their song as of the end of A Memory of Light.
The song of growing is not their "Song." The Song is a much more deep and philosophical concept, perhaps unattainable.
Do you imagine that Rand teaches "the song" to the Tu'athan after the events of A Memory of Light?
Rand does not know The Song. Anything he'd try to teach them, they would not accept as The Song.
Wait, are you saying Rand's song that Mat recognized wasn't the Tinkers' song?
The Tinker "Song" is an ideal that goes far beyond any song that has actually ever existed.

Multiple people asked about the Tinker Song and the Way of the Leaf.
Brandon said it's more than a song, it's a way of life. The song itself would mean peace and harmony for all people. Robert Jordan said it can't be found, it's a way of life (to quote Brandon, quoting RJ, "The Tinkers never do find their damn Song.") Put another way, as Brandon wrote on the cover of one Memory Keeper's book: "journey over destination".
