Lyrics and translation Madilu System - Si je savais ça

Si je savais ça

Chico Mawatu
Kamolela ngai guitar oyo ko
Zongisa ngai esika ba pimelaka nga na mokili
Ah, si je savais ça

Bolingo Somi Somida
Lolango nayo epayi ya ba susu eh
Ngai ko ekenge lokola liso ko leka nyau eh
Zongisa amour na nga na congelateur
Mokolo yo oko zonga o tiya yango na micro onde
Ko belisa ngai mingi te po oko lia ngai saignant
Wana oko lia ngai malamu

Ba zua oh, lolango nayo epayi ya ba susu eh
Ngai ko nzete ya mbila yo-yo-yo
Bomengo elekelaka wapi
Po bango ba zuaka
Na matanga to na ba feti
Somi somida oko luka ngai
Biso to zelaka se ya Nzambe
Po a pesaka temps plein
Boni yo oko pesanga manga ya mobesu papa
Basi ba kanoli eh
Si je savais ça

Ba zua oh
Bomengo nayo epayi ya basusu eh
Ngai ko nzete ya pondu oh oh
Awa ko otiki nga na zemi
Monoko eko senga tondolo
Na pokwa eko luka ngaï-ngaï
Litonge papa ko zangisa te

Na ko kufa liwa ya ngungi, ya nioka ba bete ba lembe te
Nani a mi boma se Yésu, tóyoka te
Ebele ba mi boma kaka se po ya bolingo eh
Si je savais ça

Ba zua oh
Lolango nayo epayi ya ba susu
Ngai ko nzete ya mbila yo-yo-oh
Bomengo elekelaka wapi, po bango ba zuaka
Na matanga to na ba feti
Somi Somida oko luka ngai
Biso to zelaka se ya Nzambe
Po apesaka temps plein
Boni yo oko pesanga manga ya mobesu papa
Basi ba kanoli eh
Si je savais ça

Ba zua eh eh
Libenga nayo epayi ya basusu eh
Ngai ko nzete ya pondu, ngo-oh-oh
Awa ko otiki nga na zemi
Monoko eko senga ntondolo
Na pokwa eko luka ngaï-ngaï
Litonge papa, ko zangisa te

Na ko kufa liwa ya ngungi, ya nioka ba bete ba lembe te
Nani a mi boma se po ya Yésu, to yoka te oh
Ebele ba mi boma kaka se po ya bolingo eh
Si je savais ça

Moyi ebimaka sé po ya moto nionso, basusu bako profiter nango, ngo oh
Libóké ya moninga o sombela yango kwánga
Soki oza na mwa ndámbo ya espoir, ngo oh
Ba décisions na zwelaka yo na nzela ya zando
Na miso nayo na komi baba, Adam Bombole
Ngo oh, Mema Mvuama

Boko leka wapi eh
Na zongi sima, na kamati position
Ba déceptions epa' na nga mbala misato eleki mbeka
Na zongi sima

Ki bo mbanda pasi eh
Na zongi sima, na kamati position
Ba coups epayi nanga mbala misato eleki mbeka
Na suki awa

Boko leka wapi eh
Na zongi sima, na kamati position
Ba déceptions epa' na nga mbala misato eleki mbeka
Na zongi sima

If I Only Knew

Chico Mawatu
Hand me that guitar
Take me back to where I was buried in this world
Ah, if I only knew

My love, Somi Somida
Your affection is with others, eh
I am wandering like a blind man searching for a cat, eh
Put my love back in the freezer
The day you return, put it in the microwave
Don't cook me too much, you'll eat me rare
That way you'll enjoy me better

They say, oh, your love is with others, eh
I am the string of your guitar, yo-yo-yo
Where do compliments come from
For them to say such things
At funerals or at parties
Somi Somida, you will look for me
We only fear God
Because he gives us all the time
Why do you give me the food of a miser, papa
These witches, eh
If I only knew

They say, oh
Your affection is with others, eh
I am the string of a bow, oh oh
Here you leave me on the ground
My mouth begs for bones
In the morning it looks for crumbs
The little one, papa, don't be stingy

I will die a stupid death, of a snake that doesn't bite, doesn't sting
Who killed me but Jesus, don't listen
Many kill me just for love, eh
If I only knew

They say, oh
Your love is with others
I am the string of your guitar, yo-yo-oh
Where do compliments come from, for them to say such things
At funerals or at parties
Somi Somida, you will look for me
We only fear God
Because he gives us all the time
Why do you give me the food of a miser, papa
These witches, eh
If I only knew

They say, eh eh
Your affection is with others, eh
I am the string of a bow, ngo-oh-oh
Here you leave me on the ground
My mouth begs for bones
In the morning it looks for crumbs
The little one, papa, don't be stingy

I will die a stupid death, of a snake that doesn't bite, doesn't sting
Who killed me but Jesus, don't listen, oh
Many kill me just for love, eh
If I only knew

The sun rises for everyone, some will profit from it, ngo oh
You seek your friend's downfall
If you have a little bit of hope, ngo oh
Decisions come to you on the wrong path
Your eyes become blurry, Adam Bombole
Ngo oh, Mema Mvuama

They will try where, eh
I'm coming back, in combat position
Disappointments for me are three times more than offerings
I'm coming back

It's below the belt, eh
I'm coming back, in combat position
Blows for me are three times more than offerings
I'm leaving here

They will try where, eh
I'm coming back, in combat position
Disappointments for me are three times more than offerings
I'm coming back
