Wiked Pipol Dey Prosper

How Many Time Wiked Pipol Dey Sofa
17 “Dem don ever kwensh di lite wey wiked pipol get?
Wiked pipol don ever face trobol?

18 How many times dem bi like leaf wey breeze blow trowey

Na Deat Dey Setol Evritin
23 “Some pipol nor sick at-all until di day wen dem die;
dem die with happiness and dem dey for peace.
24 Dia body dey shine well-well
and dia bones dey strong.
25 Odas nor get happiness at-all;

26 But evribody must die.
Dem dey beri who don die and worm dey kover di body.
