E wea ta riba konfó
Mas karbon pa want e kandela
No tin niun klase di purá
Mi n ke pa mi sòpi sali slap
Mir e batata kokobiá
Kon e karni ta kunsumí
E maishi yongotá
Yega serka bin saborié
Aletria ta balia den
E awa ta bon, na midi
Kue un kuchara pami smak i kla mi sòpi ta
Koro - Bin tuma mi sòpi |
The pot is on the stove
Put more coal on the fire, turn up the heat
Dont rush it now
I dont want this soup to turn out watery
See the potatoes jumping
How the meat is simmering
The corn is crawling
Come closer, smell it
The vermicelli dances
The water is good, just right
Get me a spoon so I can taste, my soup is ready
Chorus - Come and get some of my soup |
