Di Woman
1 As I sleep for my bed thru-out di nite,
I find di one I love with my heart and soul,
but I nor si am.
2 So I tell mysef, “I go get up go di town,
enter di street
kon follow korna-korna go find di pesin wey I love.”
So I find evriwhere, but I nor still si am.
3 So wen I si di men wey dey guide for nite,
I kon ask dem, “Una si my love?”
4 As I waka pass dem small,
I kon si di pesin wey I love.
I hold am tight and I nor wont make e go,
so I take am go my mama house;
to di bedroom where e for get my belle.
5 So Jerusalem wimen,
make una promise mi with gazelle and deer
sey una nor go disturb awa love.
