Djeli

My dear Djelikeni, you are a troubadour
My dear Djelimuso, you are a griot
Let the great times come back, and it will show me the way to wisdom. This is how the griot sang, and Allah made it so and blessed his heart, to spread wisdom and harmony.
(Chorus)
The noble do not suffer, the wise man is always happy. The rich do not suffer, the beautiful woman is always happy. You who are noble and rich and handsome, who have a good heart and a diploma, the griot who sings to you is happy because you are a generous woman.
(Chorus)...
Alou, the griot, please tell us; the griot Sourakata, do you know Mahamadou? ...the griot Sourakata, do you know Mahamadou? He is a hero.
Snourakata was the son of Moudalfa, Moudalfa was the son of Fakouroun, Fakouroun was the son of Farfan, Farfan was the son of Henryani, Henryani was the son of Djiguiso, Djiguiso was the son of Karyani, Karyani was the son of Gnantaman, Gnantaman was the son of Gnantouman, Gnantouman was the son of Douga, Douga's mother was Ballafa, the mother of Delya, the blessed one. My dear lords,
(Chorus)
Massa, you are the one who hears me before anyone else. You are the griot who sees before anyone else. Allah, the Koran is my witness, only the griot sees before Allah. My dear Djelikeni, you are a griot. Wow! Wow!
