banin de banin de,
sanougue guimba keba
koro ye kaba
go away from my door i refuse bad news
don`t want any strife
banin de i banin de,
fanga folo folo tana ye
kan fila fo ye
go away from my door
i refuse to let you into my life
barake daman de massa ke djeli son na,
manin galou ma silan doni
if you speak out of both sides of your mouth,
you might as well as that you lied
barake daman de massa ke kenie
ni na marin galou ro silan doni
if what you say to me is the truth,
then why can`t you look me in the eye
it`s time for my life to change
i no longer am the same
i must turn the page now
and look on the bright side
in life we can choose to be
in charge of our destiny
we must learn forgiveness
and to swallow our pride
we must leave the past behind
in order for us to find
the gooness in everyone
that`s hidden inside
if friends do not want to be
positive then you see
you must cut them loose
or be caught in their bad vibes
na a a ye dafo, yamari yo la la
yarassourou mogo lou yo ayessabaly
n`ye doni, bahika la la la ni fora
ng`ana djoni ye, sani be goro de lani sandji
ni se dama be dougou kan
mande la fui lou fere man di
barika mogo fourou, brika bougou den ma wolo,
barika ka mogo nafa
mogo were douki dia badouga den
yamari yo nare maghan mandeka
sogo sogo simbo ni simbo sarama
djkouma lou kabalan simbo,nourou
soma karabali soma mande
soma folo ni mande soma la ban
fama n`be ng`ana ma sanougue guimba
banin de banin de,
sanougue guimba keba koro ye kaba
go away from my door
i refuse to let you into my life
faden djougou nara moun kama
faden djougou nara djanfa kama

aibanin de a fanga tana ye kan fila fo ye
