Di Woman
1 I wish sey yu bi my broda,
wey suck my mama breast.
Den I for fit kiss yu, even if pesin dey look us
and nobody go tok anytin.
2 My mama wey tish mi,
I go take yu go en house.
I go give yu betta wine drink.
Yes! Even my sweet pomegranate wine.
3 Yu go rub my head with yor left hand
kon massage my body with yor rite hand.
4 Jerusalem wimen,
make una promise mi sey una nor go disturb awa love.
Di Wimen
5 Who bi dis wey hold en love dey waka
kom from di desert?
I wake yu up from under di apple tree
where yor mama for born yu.
For der, yor mama dey kry with pain,
wen e dey born yu.
6 Make only mi dey yor heart
and make I bi like betta ring for yor hand,
bikos love strong like deat and feelins for pesin,
bi like grave wey nor dey full.
E bi like heavy fire and e dey katch well-well.
7 Even strong wota nor fit kwensh love;
river nor go fit swallow love.
Pesin nor go fit buy love with all en propaty,
bikos dem nor dey sell am.
Di Woman Broda
8 Wi get one small sista wey neva get breast and naw,

9 If e bi wall, wi go build towa with silva for am;
but if e bi door, wi go protet am with cedar.
Di Woman
10 I bi wall before and my breast stand like towa where dem dey keep tins put,
so wen ever my love look mi, e dey always dey happy,

11 Aldo Solomon hire en vineyard give farmers for Baal-Hamon
and each of dem dey gi-am 1,000 silva koin
wen ever dem harvest di fruit.
12 But na only mi get my vineyard
and Solomon nor nid to pay 1,000 silva koin.
But I go give two hundred silva koin

Di Man
13 My love, make I bi di first to hear yor vois from di gardin,

Di Woman
14 My love, make yu kwik kom meet mi
