| Moninga na ngai akeyi kopema na banzelu
| My friend is coming to rest with the angels
|
| Molimo n’esengo pe kimia
| God is a God of peace
|
| Soki pe liwa yango ezala ata nzembo
| And if that death is even a song
|
| Baninga to yemba azonga
| Many will dig in to save
|
| Moninga akeyi eh mawa na motema
| The friend came eh sorry and kind
|
| Akozonga lisusu te wo eh
| He will not return to you eh
|
| Baboti bakolela likama ekweyi na kati
| Parents will cry out for danger in the future
|
| Ya libota
| For families
|
| Ye akeyi na ye, akozonga lisusu te
| When he returns, he will not return again
|
| Tokotikala na mawa na motema ye akeyi
| We will be sorry for his coming
|
| Moninga na ngai akeyi kopema na banzelu
| My friend is coming to rest with the angels
|
| Molimo n’esengo pe kimia (Moninga akeyi na ye eh)
| God is a God of peace (A friend comes with him eh)
|
| Soki pe liwa yango ezala ata nzembo
| And if that death is even a song
|
| Baninga to yemba azonga
| Many will dig in to save
|
| Yo liwa, yo mabe, omemeli ngai ndeko
| Death, you evil one, bring my brother
|
| Ye na bolenge okumbiye asilisaki nai no
| He and his teenage children ended up with him
|
| Boyimi te
| Boyimi te
|
| Ndege nini tokotikala na mawa
| What aircraft we will live with tomorrow
|
| Ndeko akeyi na ye akozonga, te akozonga te
| Her brother who is coming back will not return
|
| Moninga na ngai akeyi kopema na banzelu
| My friend is coming to rest with the angels
|
| Molimo n’esengo pe kimia (Moninga ya lisano anani eh)
| God is a God of peace (A friend of peace eh)
|
| Soki pe liwa yango ezala ata nzembo
| And if that death is even a song
|
| Baninga to yemba azonga
| Many will dig in to save
|
| Ye akozonga te eh ye ye
| He will not return, eh
|
| Oh yo liwa mabe eh eh
| Oh yo liwa mabe eh eh
|
| Likambonini yo liwa ah
| Likambonini yo liwa ah
|
| Yo liwa mabe eh — yo kamateli nagai ndeko
| You're a real spit fire and that's exactly what I did
|
| Akeyi akozonga lisusu te
| Akeyi will not return
|
| Yo liwa, yo mabe
| You are dead, you are evil
|
| Ye akeyi kopema molimo n’esengo
| He refreshes the spirit of prayer
|
| Soki pe liwa yango | If it dies |
