Hey baby
You that I love, this love is not mine
Come baby
My own love, if they hear about it
They'll seize you from me
If sinners had no conscience
There would be no redemption

Sikiniôkon djoukou mana wili
Oko né yé horon yé mouna bi wawa
Balima djoukou mana wili ko fôli ti bara yé
Malankolow walé

Hey baby
You that I love, our love is impossible
If my family sees your face in my house
Our love
The sound of our lovemaking can be heard in every house
For all to hear
Our love, and having you on the phone
Our love
Our love is a movie, on the television
Our love
Our love, my love
And your love

And when I listen to it
And when I see the face
And when I hear your voice
And when I dance with you
I want to make love to you
Oh my God, forgive me
For thinking about it
And wanting it so badly
But when I look at your beautiful face
And I think about it
Come baby let's dance all night
Come baby let's dance all night

Hey baby
You are my forever
I want to make love to you
And my love, my love
Drummer with the drum and the stick
Oh with the drum and the stick
My word is my word
Come baby
My word is my word, my self-belief
My word is my word, my determination
Your love is my love
If sinners had no conscience
Your love is my love

If sinners had no conscience
Your love is my love
If sinners had no soul
Your love is my love, if sinners had no
There would be no redemption
And I have no love, if sinners had no
With great consequences
