Mariama |
| Ah little pigeon |
| Thank you Mariama Diallo, Diallo Dieri |
| Nimma Mariama |
| Mariama, namesake of Mariama the golden pigeon |
| Mariama Sola |
| Mariama the perfect mother |
| Mariama the ideal woman |
| Mariama a true sister |
| Turtle Dove, Mariama Diallo Dieri |
| Mariama, a real beauty |
| Mariama’s neck is long and graceful |
| Mariama’s countenance is beautiful |
| Mariama smile a little |
| And I will reward you |
| Look! |
| you are the moon among the stars |
| Look! |
| you are a light in the darkness |
| My turtle dove |
| You stand out from the other women |
| Like a white crested heron among birds |
| Ah my turtle dove |
| Thank you, Diallo Dieri |
| She doesn’t tease |
| She bears no ill will |
| Nor even hints at it |
| Diallo the Peul |
| Yes Mariama Diallo Dieri Nimma |
| Dark as ebony |
| Daughter of God |
| Diallo Dieri |
| Mariama looks after her family so well |
| Mariama cares for all her husband’s needs |
| Oh Mariama |
| It’s time now to see to your neighbors |
| For you are well known for that |
| Diallo Dieri |
| Mariama the perfect mother |
| Mariama the ideal woman |
