Asaf Song For Di Kwayamasta
1 Make wi sing praiz God wey bi awa strent.
Make wi sing praiz Jakob God.
2 Make una sing and play sheke-sheke.
Make una use jita and harp play sweet music.
3 Make una blow ram horn

4 Bikos dis na wetin dem rite for Israel law
and na wetin Jakob God kommand.
5 E make dis law for Israel pipol wen E attack Egypt land just to free us.
Den I hear one vois wey I nor know dey sey,
6 “Si, I don take di load komot from una shoulder;
I don free una from di heavy work wey una dey do.
7 Una kry to mi for help wen una dey trobol and I save una;

8 My pipol make una listin to mi as I dey warn una!

9 Una must nor serve anoda god;
una must nor bow before any oda god.
10 Bikos na mi wey bi una Oga God, save una from Egypt land.
Make una open una mout wide and I go pak good tins full am.
11 But my pipol nor gri listin.
Israel pipol nor wont make I dey with dem.
12 So I let dem do di tins wey dey hongry dem to do
kon live dia life di way dem wont am.
13 How I wish my pipol go gri listin to mi!
How I wish sey Israel pipol go follow mi kon do as I tell dem!
14 Den I for fit kwik distroy dia enemies!

15 Make pipol wey hate God, fear as dem si am;
make disgrace follow dem forever.
16 But I go give Israel pipol betta food chop;
I go make una beleful with betta honey
wey dey flow kom out from di rock.”
