Paroles et traduction Jocelyne Béroard - Siwo

Siwo

Siwo,
Man lé an nonm dous kon Siwo,
An nonm pou man pa résisté,
Lè i ka tchenbé mwen,
An nonm pou man fè chimen-a,

Man ka chèché han,
An nonm ki dous pasé Siwo,
Man pa lé fè anons,
Pou rété san répons,
La-vi mwen-an dézèspéré,

Sa man ka mandé,
Pa trè konpliké,
I pa bizwen bèl,
Pa bizwen ni zèl,
Enmen rigolé,
Toujou ka swingé,
Fó pa i fè djendjen,
Lè man ka palé,

Man diw Siwo,
Ban mwen yon ki dous kon Siwo,
Mè fódwè i kapab osi,
Tchenbé lan-men mwen fó,
Lévé tèt é gadé douvan,

Lè lavi-a ni an ti gou fyèl,
Sa ka manké sé ti bwen myèl,
An ti dousè dèpi lèmaten,
An papadou pou fè mwen di byen,
Lè tout bagay pa ka woulé men ka désann,
Sa dé fwa pi rèd lè ou fou,
Yo ka chèché solisyon,
Men sa pa an sitiasyon,

Man diw Siwo,
Ban-mwen an nonm dous kon Siwo,
Maré-y épi ralé-y vini,
Men pa mennen ba-mwen yon pou tèwolisé tchè-mwen,

Siwo,
(Si-w twouvé sa, kryé-mwen pa lót bó-a) (x3)
Pa déranjé-mwen si sé pa pou sa,

(An ja voyajé tout koté,
é man byen présé di ritouné,
Lakay-mwen an ba solèy sé la menm an ké pé twouvé)
An nonm dous kon (Siwo)
Pli dous (a dous Siwo)
An nonm dous kon
(Siwo, a dous Siwo) (x4)

(An ja voyajé tout koté,
é man byen présé di ritouné,
Lakay-mwen an ba solèy sé la menm an ké pé twouvé)
An nonm dous kon (Siwo)
Byen pli dous ki (Siwo)
Sé nonm-la sé (Siwo)
Sé fanm-la sé (a dous Siwo)
Woy péyi-mwen (Siwo)
Lakay-mwen (a dous Siwo)
Sé nonm-la (Siwo)
Sé fanm-la (a dous Siwo)
Pli dous, plis dous, plis dous, pli dous ki Siwo,
(Siwo, a dous Siwo) (x4)

Siwo

Siwo,
My husband is a tender man like Siwo,
A man I can't resist,
When he holds me,
A man I can journey with,

I've been searching,
A man who is sweeter than Siwo,
I don't want to announce it,
And get no response,
My life is getting desperate,

What I'm asking for,
Isn't too complicated,
He doesn't need to be handsome,
Doesn't need to be zealous,
Loves to laugh,
Always dancing,
He shouldn't fuss,
When I speak,

I tell you Siwo,
Give me one who is sweet like Siwo,
But he must also be able to,
Hold my hand tightly,
Lift his head and look ahead,

When life has a bitter taste,
What we need is a little bit of honey,
A little sweetness from the morning,
A lollipop to make me say yes,
When everything goes wrong and falls apart,
It's twice as hard when you're crazy,
People can search for solutions,
But it's not a situation,

I tell you Siwo,
Give me a man who is sweet like Siwo,
Tie him up and drag him here,
But don't bring me one who will torture my heart,

Siwo,
(Si-you find him, call me on the other side) (x3)
Don't bother me if it's not about that,

(I have traveled everywhere,
And I'm in a hurry to go back,
My home in the sun is the one where I can find him)
A man as sweet as (Siwo)
Sweeter (than sweet Siwo)
A man as sweet as
(Siwo, than sweet Siwo) (x4)

(I have traveled everywhere,
And I'm in a hurry to go back,
My home in the sun is the one where I can find him)
A man as sweet as (Siwo)
Much sweeter than (Siwo)
That man is (Siwo)
That woman is (than sweet Siwo)
You can my country (Siwo)
My home (than sweet Siwo)
That man is (Siwo)
That woman is (than sweet Siwo)
Sweeter, sweeter, sweeter, sweeter than Siwo,
(Siwo, than sweet Siwo) (x4)
