Prudence

Ndimbola eh maman
Ngai Reddy nalanga makambo
Ngambo namema nayebi té
Bakofinga ti na sang, nakomi komesa nango
Lokola soldat oyo akendaka etúmba, lokito ya masasi emesana
Wuta kala, wuta kala
Na tuni wuta kala mokili yango ebandaka
Na masumu to lelo eleki?
Ba nani balingi balekisela ngai tango
Po na nga tango ezali précieux
Ba koloba, ba kofinga po naboma nzóto
Oyo nga nzóto eza se moko
Mokolo liwa ekoya nayebi té oh
Nalengela mwa tango Nzambé adefi nga
Na tuni eh, ngai natuni
Natuni bato ya mbóka
Oyo babanda mosálá oyo libosó na nga
Baloba po nayeba, matoyi ekosala pasi
Sadam Oussein yóka melope oyo

Mokili oyo mambu mingi
Monguna aza pembeni nayo
Akolia lokola mpuku
Mabe bakosala na moninga pene
Ndakisa na yango zala ekenge
Mwana nzela oyo okotambola ah

Monguna aza pembeni na nzela (ako tala yo)
Keba na verre nayo ya masanga (sala keba)
Ekenge luta nzela ya mbongo (tala ngambu)
Surtout masolo ya ba nketo keba
(Bakento bo keba na mambu makambo)

Ya nga likambo na nani?
Makambo epona kaka nga
Nani ayemba nga eh
Oyo yanga ekomi kamwa
Moto ako senga eloko se kombo na nga
Soki azui te yoka kombo na nga ndenge ekozika
(Na minoko ya bato)
Patcheli mwana samy, Patrick Diamona

Mabé nasala nayebaka té
Mosala na pona miziki
Pona bokolo bana na ngai
Oyo ya ngai ekomi kamwa
Moto ako senga eloko se kombo na nga

Mama eh, mama oh
Kombo na ngai esambwé, ekomi elengi mafuta ya nzoyi
Balangwaka kaka na kombo na nga
Baluka basi na kombo na nga

Mabé nasala nayebaka té
Mosala na pona muziki
Pona bokolo bana nangai
Oyo ya ngai ekomi kamwa
Moto ako senga eloko se kombo na nga
Dédicaces
Mabé nasala nayebaka té
Mosala na pona muziki
Pona bokolo bana nangai
Oyo ya ngai ekomi kamwa
Moto ako senga eloko se kombo na nga

Mama, mama
Maman yoka mongongo na nga
Ba lingi bazua mposo na nga ya nzoto
Basala na ya ngo mboda
Oh, Godert nasali nini?

Mabé nasala nayebaka té
Mosala na pona muziki (na sali nini?)
Pona bokolo bana nangai
Oyo ya ngai ekomi kamwa
Moto ako senga eloko se kombo na nga

Oh-h-h-h-oh
Fonsi Tshimanga, Ignace Moleka, Jean-Paul Onema
Michel kabeya, Ya Célé', Kambaka kamuzuna
Ya nga likambo na nani?
Makambo epona kaka nga
Nani ayemba nga eh
Oyo yanga ekomi kamwa
Moto ako senga eloko se kombo na nga
Soki azui te yoka kombo na nga ndenge ekozika
(Na minoko ya bato)

Prudence

I'm sorry, dear
Reddy tells me there's trouble
I don't know where it came from
They lie and gossip, and now I'm in a fix
Like a soldier who went to war, facing enemy fire
For a long time, for a long time
I've been asking how long this world has existed
Is there more sin today than before?
Who will give me back my time
Because for me, time is precious
They talk, they lie, they say I'm arrogant
But I am humble
I don't know when death will come
I beg you God, give me a little more time
I ask, I ask
I ask my compatriots
Who were doing this work before me
They say I should know, that matoyi will pave the way
Even Saddam Hussein suffered this

This world is full of problems
The devil is near
He devours like a lion
Even to your closest friend, they will do evil
Look at Ekenge as an example
Young man, where are you going?

The devil is near the path (he's watching you)
Search with your magic glass (search)
Ekenge, clear the path to wealth (look for money)
Above all, avoid gossip from women
(Women, avoid gossip)

What's my problem?
My problems are my own
Who will defend me?
This affair has become serious
Someone will ask for my name
If he doesn't get it, he'll call my name as it is
(In people's mouths)
Patcheli, son of Sammy, Patrick Diamona

Maybe I did it without knowing
I work for music
To provide for my children
My affair has become serious
Someone will ask for my name

Mother, mother
My name is precious, it has become a sweet perfume
They only talk about my name
They look for husbands with my name

Maybe I did it without knowing
I work for music
To provide for my children
My affair has become serious
Someone will ask for my name
Dedications
Maybe I did it without knowing
I work for music
To provide for my children
My affair has become serious
Someone will ask for my name

Mother, mother
Mother hear my plea
They want to take my life
They're acting like witches
Oh, Godert, what have I done?

Maybe I did it without knowing
I work for music (what have I done?)
To provide for my children
My affair has become serious
Someone will ask for my name

Oh-h-h-h-oh
Fonsi Tshimanga, Ignace Moleka, Jean-Paul Onema
