Comped Joaquim

O kunpede Jukin
N ben kunvedá osê un kezemente
Nhe fi Izé kasá nó sórsa
El ma kel filha de Medelena

Osê ta levá kuskus osóde
Groge vei d'kel beril
P'no bé finka nó bói la d'riba d'kel terinba

O Nosenhor Iszus Kriste
Osê isdá txuva da no txon
Pa no bé penhá nó konpe
Fejon pédra y bóbra fóga

P'no po na kel penéla
Tronsóde ke kel kotxupa

Pekê kezemente sen fortura
E pior ke noiva ke n den vintin

Joaquim's Complaint

Oh, good Joaquim
We're blessed to have you here
We're at Izé's house having a party
He has Medelena's daughter

We're having couscous today
We'll drink grogue after it's done
So we can stay here all day long

Lord Jesus Christ
You made it rain so the crops would grow
So we can harvest and have plenty
Beans are hard and okra is soft

We'll cook it in this pot
We'll eat it with this spoon

You came here without any money
That's worse than a bride with no dowry
