Текст и перевод песни Rokia Traoré - Kouma

Kouma

Kélén, ni bi nièlafilè
Fila, né bi yèlè missin kè
Saba, né bi da ma gninikan
Ni yé dôfô né bi dôfô
Siki nion ou ma né bi dô fô
Balima ou ma né bi dô fô
Téri ma ou ma né bi dô fô
Ni yé dô fô né bi dô fô

Kanan gninika kouman mandi
Kana gninika kouma bi mâ doun
Kanan gninika kouman mandi
Kana gninika kouma magni

Kouma dé yé to dén
Dô mâ korotan dô ba koun nabô
Fin bè ba dén wolo

Kouma ma fô ka ban, ka ban
Kouma ka to o kô kouma bi tingninza
Kouma ma fô ka fô ka fô
Kouma kato o kô kouma bi fêkénya

A bè darôdiya, déka nin rôfèkènia
O mana kè fô ta ou bi fô
Ali fô bali bi fô
O mana kè kèlén ou bi fô

Kouma dé yé guéni kissè
Tatchoko bèla, mine tchoko bèla
Kana tolow tolow fin tè
Ni yi tolow a bè tignè ni kè

Avocats lou gnika kouma bi kalan dé
Warabi mâ doun, kouma bi mâ dou
Saba bi mâ ki, kouma bi mâ ki
Finalou gninika kouma bi déké dé
Kissè bi mâ dow, kouma bi djôkin
Mourou bi mâ dow, kouma bi mâ djôkin
Diplomate gninika kouma magni alla

Héhé Fana
Kodonbali
Aha koulé
Kana gninika ka né gnika ka né bila yébali fôla
Kana gninika ka né gnika ka né bila minbali fôla
Kana né gninika gninika gninika, ka né bila fôbali fô la
Kana né gninika kouma magnidé, kouma magni, wa kouma magni dé

Kouma

Lovely, my beautiful sister
Sister, my beautiful, brilliant, intelligent sister
Saba, my beautiful, dark-skinned sister
Even the beautiful are always beautiful
My great, beautiful daughter is always beautiful
My strong, beautiful daughter is always beautiful
My beautiful daughter is always beautiful
Even the beautiful are always beautiful

Our beautiful, elegant visitor
Our beautiful, dark-skinned visitor
Our beautiful, elegant visitor
Our beautiful, golden visitor

A beautiful woman should always be beautiful
She knows how to decorate her house and body with expensive things
She spends a lot of money on clothes
A beautiful woman should always be beautiful
My beautiful woman, please don’t cry
My beautiful woman, always be my preferred woman
My beautiful woman, please don’t cry
My beautiful woman, always be my favorite woman

My beautiful woman, I love you very much
You are like a flower, your physique is like a beautiful tree
You should marry a man as handsome as you
Marry me, I am the best man for you
You should marry a man as gentle as you
Marry me, I am the most gentle man for you

My beautiful woman, you are a queen
You have a beautiful body, and a beautiful heart
If you walk on the street, people will look at you
And they will say, that woman is so beautiful

Lawyers are like beautiful flowers
Doctors are like beautiful girls
The Saba people are like beautiful boys
The Fulanis are like beautiful men
The Kissé people are like beautiful women
The Mourou people are like beautiful women
Diplomats are like very beautiful women

Hey Fana

Aha koulé
If one thing is beautiful, everything else is beautiful
If one thing is beautiful, everything else is beautiful
If one thing is beautiful, everything else is beautiful
If one thing is beautiful, everything else is beautiful
