Текст и перевод песни Papa Wemba - Awa Y'okeyi

Awa Y'okeyi

Soki lelo yokeyi (e)?
Nani a kobokolo elanga tolona?
Soki lelo yo o gazé e?
Nani a kobatela fololo ya bolingo?
Nani a kobokolo elanga tolona (yo)?
Nani a kobatela (oye oye) muana oyo tobota?

Motema na ngai omemi (e)
Nini nakosala soki (na zangi yo)?
Mokili sé deux à deux
Natikali mozemba nakobima na nani (e)?

Nani a kobokolo elanga tolona (yo)?
Nani a kobatela (mama ah) muana oyo tobota (ngai na yo)?

Awa Y'okeyi, Awa Y'okeyi

Motema na ngai omemi
Fololo yango, Fololo yango e faner
Motema na nga o sundoli
Fololo yango, Fololo yango ya bolingo

Awa Y'okeyi

Motema na ngai omemi (e)
Nini nakosala soki (na zangi yo)?
Mokili sé deux à deux
Natikali mozemba nakobima na nani (e)?

Nani a kobokolo elanga tolona (yo)?
Nani a kobatela (mama ah) muana oyo tobota (ngai na yo)?

Awa Y'okeyi

Soki yo kani yo o kokende (Toutou)

Si un jour tu vas décider de partir
Kobosana Laya te

Motema na ngai omemi
Fololo yango, Fololo yango e faner
Motema na nga o sundoli
Fololo yango, Fololo yango ya bolingo

Awa Y'okeyi

Amen

Awa Y'okeyi

If you were to leave today (e)?
Who will bring me the sun of the morning?
If you were to disappear today?
Who will take away the worries of love?
Who will bring me the sun of the morning (yo)?
Who will take (oh oh) your pains from my heart?

My heart is crying (e)
What shall I do if (I lose you)?
The world is full of couples
If I were to remain single, who would I be with?

Who will bring me the sun of the morning (yo)?
Who will take (mama ah) your pains from my heart (me and you)?

Awa Y'okeyi, Awa Y'okeyi

My heart is crying
This pain, this pain is unbearable
My heart aches
This pain, this pain of love

Awa Y'okeyi

My heart is crying (e)
What shall I do if (I lose you)?
The world is full of couples
If I were to remain single, who would I be with?

Who will bring me the sun of the morning (yo)?
Who will take (mama ah) your pains from my heart (me and you)?

Awa Y'okeyi

If you ever decide to go (Toutou)

If you ever decide to leave
Don't forget Laya

My heart is crying
This pain, this pain is unbearable
My heart aches
This pain, this pain of love

Awa Y'okeyi

Amen
