Bodimbea
Charlotte Dipanda Lyrics

Toh na
Here we are

Wengue na timbi noh
With our guitars in hand

Nia dibongo
Playing some drums

La bana, bana be na
The children are here

Oyi yaye noh wende bodimbea
Come and dance with us

Minya, ma bwan
Move your body, my brother

Ma nde passa, wengue o nin wassé
Don't just stand there, start to move around

Na bodi nde nje a bato
With this rhythm in our bodies

É sè bossinga (ah ah ah ah)
We are feeling the energy

Mba, na mala, na nde nya bobé
Let's keep the party going

Njané so bwan, bongo n'iwiye
The night is young, let's have some fun

Toh nje na bodi noh eh ta mpon nde
Here, we have the beat only in our hands

É ta nde na mulema mu sangui
Let it flow inside us

Tétè nde a bi nje a diyele no mba
Let's sing and dance together

Mama moh mene peh a ta mba mbong
Make way for me, I want to dance

Biala ba ndolo be na o koussi noh
The sounds of love are in the air

Ye te na mbale na o mala
Join us on this dancefloor, let's have some fun

Isohdi-sohdi mulema pon nde
With the rhythm in our hearts

Wala longo di timbi nde beh na
The sound of the drums is everywhere

Mutaka na mutaka pon
Together, together

Alané eh (paille o)
Hey, let me tell you

Doua paille ya ngo na te (paille o)
About a special moment

Kaka mulema mongo muna tétè (paille o)
When our hearts were beating as one

Nye na komba a keki te mouto
Let's enjoy this moment while it lasts

(Biya na lende kumba nyaka)

Mukala a wondi eh
The night is passing by

Wa na o mala di woh na mbembe
Come and join us, let's keep dancing

Isohdi-sohdi teten na mulema
With the beat in our hearts

Ndengu'a bobé lende makwassi
Let the joy and happiness surround us

Tumba le pon nde mbembe na mbembe
The drums keep on playing

Ala etum nde o bélè
Let's keep the vibes alive
