Baayo |
| If God could turn me into a pigeon |
| A golden pigeon or a turtle dove |
| I could fly to my homeland |
| At Douwayra |
| Back home where my folks are |
| If God could give me everything I wish for |
| Long life, happiness and prosperity |
| Then I would live always beside |
| Those who are dear to me |
| My parents and my friends |
| While I was in France |
| Learning more about art and life |
| One terrible phone call |
| Summoned me home where I found |
| My mother was already dead and buried |
| Orphan, orphan, orphan |
| Mama, mama, mama, my darling mother |
| Papa, papa, papa, my dear father |
| Oh Mother most kind |
| Oh Father full of pity |
| What sadness when they go |
| How sacred is the family |
| Mama, Mama, Mama Aissata |
| Samba Boubou Yacine Wade |
| Mother of Fatou, mother of Mama |
| Mother of Laye Malle and of Chillo |
| Of Ndeye Khar and of Ndeye Gaye |
| Of Hameth Malle and Baaba Baidy Baaba Debbo |
| Ah mama Aissata Khar Sano Saar and Nar Sarr |
| Ah Aissata Samba Boubou Yacine, ah mama |
