wo whivo uhwore wo mwe mona ~ You killed the farmers and captured the children,

osuna gwa wan ~ The leaders has sent you

Abibro ohoyinmi gwolor bi olokpa ~ How many times have I wanted to put my armies,

Usu rhi o ranwa ~ round all your people

Ebe oniohon mono bie botor ribekpe Ron ye ~ Just as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings


beti wole rho vwe eeh ~ But you would not let me!

fiki rho tionyina, motor whe ko rie whi yo ~ And so your land will be abandoned and empty

Whro kenana yanra mevwewe ~ From now on I tell you

Wo bi mrevwe ofaa ~ You will never see me again
