Paroles et traduction Lila Downs - Yunu Yucu Ninu

Yunu Yucu Ninu

Yucu ninu xian Kumasi
Ini-ri jin-ro, kua'a kiti nchaka-ro
Nuni cháa ñú-un nayuu roó
Nta'u nta'u, ntukuiñi-ro

Maro skuanu yunu
Skuanu ita yisi
Ita nteyu, vincha, ji'i
Ntuvi ja kanuu skuanu-ro

Yunu nuyuja
Nuxeñu, nujanu
Nuyuntu, inti-i kanuu

Io iin chaa ntiti roo
Te tu kuenta sa'a-de
Konte nu ni ntua-ro
Pan ni sa'a
Te vasi nuku'un ini-de roo

Chii maro kuu ja sa'a
Lu Lu yuku ninu
Te nuu nte'e jika-yo
Tuun tuun ntukuiñi-ro

Yunu Yucu Ninu

My beloved friend Kumasi
You are beautiful, with your dark skin and eyes
Your lips are so sweet and kissable
I want to be with you forever

I love your beautiful eyes
Your eyes are like stars
They shine so brightly, and make me so happy
I want to look into your eyes forever

My beloved friend
My love, my life
My everything, my sunshine

I will love you forever
I will never let you go
I will always be there for you
I will always love you
I will always be by your side

I want to spend the rest of my life with you
I want to have children with you
I want to grow old with you
I want to die in your arms
