Lyrics
Tekere, Tekere, Tekere
Ka Tekere fo ye
Mousso lou, Tekere fo lan koun
Beka Tekere fo, billet ma na di jeli ke ba ma
O bara sewa, tenh koro Tekere bo fo
Tekere, Tekere, Tekere
Moun yi dimina ne ma?
Moun yi dimi, nkanou yoko bere monelen
Mou yi monela nema
Mou yi monela nema, ne fourougnoko bere
Ne mena yoliyoli la
I te da la ka, n’kiye
Da laka, san ya kan
Awa, kanou dalaka, ji ye akan
Allah diyayemogo, dalaka, nene’a kan
Ali ni mo ye di fe bona
A faye, keleya mandiye
Kon te keleya, ahh keleya dimi ne
A ba wili ila moya
A te labana, na ma mojougouya banke-ila fou

Batterie fola, i kena kena joukouya
Ne ta kila, n’te joukouya fe
Na tioumba fola, i ka kena joukouya
Ne ta kila, n’te joukouya fe
Jourou fola, i ka kena joukouya
Ne ta kila, n’te joukouya fe

Beka Tekere false, billet ma didnt tell the jellies that low ma
O bara sewa, tenh koro Tekere kiss fake
