Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Loi dimbéya na ekon e yôki bôlè mboa diboma éé
Wo wo wo ko ba ndeko ooh
Bozala téké e ponda sua
E boki ko branza mokili iih
Njika lamboa di boli
O kusanè nô loba lôngô dongo
Njika dia pe di ee
Na bulu bo windi tèngè, lo dangwanè nyungu wuma yèsè
Buka tè o ebola ekon, nyola mpétè ma ekon
Wo wowo esè misôdi éé,
Oi dibéya na ekon e ma bôlè tumba diboma éé
Wo wow o esè maladi éé
Senga tè nyôwa nyolo I ma tèmè nô mba na bôngô
Zambe a pes′aka muto yonk so oya ekopi na ye
Pombopo na ningi yo o ninga disô nay o ofo ngule
Yango o ne ne kaka o tala o yoya bato o zua ki ole ki ngai
Tala ndegue o kopi ponda musaka
Mutu ka ya kitoko o nini nyo zala ka ngai
Zua ngai muto na penda la kai loko ya kala
Yango zambe e leki nga na makasi
O aya imingini da i zango soto p pazana ta
Wo wo wo ko ba ndeko ooh
O busa na teke zua o bi ko panza mokili
Wo wow o esè maladi éé
Oi dibéya na ekon e ma bôlè tumba diboma éé
Wo wowo esè Maladi éé,
Senga tè nyô ya nyolo I ma tèmè nô mba na bôngô
Njika Njika Njika dia pè di éé
O kusi nô môngô masango na bé ndènè
Nde o nyamsè pe misima ma nunè
Nje mo moto tengè a si ma ja nô o yao wuma éé
A timbisèlè loba masoma o nyola njé a kusanè nô mô
Wo wo wo ko ba ndeko ooh
O busa na teke zua o bi ko panza mokili
Wo wow o esè maladi éé
Oi dibéya na ekon e ma bôlè tumba diboma éé
Wo wowo esè Maladi éé,
Senga tè nyô ya nyolo I ma tèmè nô mba na bôngô

@glennelie2415
Jumes c’est ce qu’on raconte en général mais c’est faux , car le Cameroun a été réduit et à cause de ce processus le Cameroun a donné naissance à une grande partie dans les deux Congo au Gabon à la Guinée équatoriale au sud du Tchad à l’est du Nigeria...
