Di Woman
1 Na mi bi di Rose flower from Sharon,
di lily flower for di valley.
Di Man
2 Just as lily flower dey among shuku-shuku,
na so my darlin bi among oda yong wimen.
Di Woman
3 Just as apple tree dey among oda trees for forest,
na so my love bi among di yong men.
I dey like sidan for where e dey
and en fruit dey sweet mi to chop.
4 E take mi go di party
kon show mi as e love mi rish.
5 E give mi kake, so dat I go get pawa
kon add apples join am,
bikos en love won make mi faint.
6 E dey rub my head with en left hand
kon dey massage mi with en rite hand.
7 Jerusalem wimen! Make una promise mi with animals,
like deer and gazelle sey,
una nor go disturb awa love.
8 Make una listin! My love dey kom.
Si! E dey pass di mountins
and di hills dey kom meet mi.
9 My love bi like gazelle or yong deer.
Look! E stand for back of awa wall,
where e for dey look di room thru di window.
10 My love tell mi sey, “Get up, my darlin!
My fine wife,
make yu kom follow mi go!
11 Si! Kold sizin don pass
and rain nor dey fall again.
12 Di flowers don dey grow
and di time wen birds dey sing,
don kom and naw,
wi dey hear dove dey sing for awa land.
13 Fig tree don dey bring fig fruit kom out
and di breeze dey scent with fresh vines.
So get up, make yu follow mi, my darlin and sweet wife;
kom follow mi make wi dey go!”
Di Man
14 Yu bi like dove wey hide inside rock,
so make yu allow mi si yor fine face
kon hear yor sweet vois.
15 Make una katch all di fox for us;
especially di small-small ones,
before dem go distroy awa vineyard.
Di Woman
16 My love na my own and I bi en own too;
e dey feed en animals for where lilys dey.
17 My love, before di morning breeze go blow and darkness go disappear,
make yu kom back kom meet mi like gazelle or yong deer
wey dey on-top mountin.
