siw gasel nan je
ou ka wè sa k'ap trakasel.
siw tandel pale
ou ka wè kè'l fin degrengole
tout moun sèvi avèl
fè'l sa yo pat dwe fè'l
pou sa li pase
fanm sa ka touche kè lisifè.

The Creole lyrics of Harmonik's song "Angelique" discuss the subject of infidelity in a relationship. The first line, "siw gasel nan je" translates to "if you gossip in her ear," indicating that the singer is warning the listener not to talk negatively about their significant other, as they may be able to see the negative effects it has on their relationship. The second line, "ou ka wè sa k'ap trakasel," translates to "you can see what it's doing to her," suggesting that the singer is implying that the listener's words may be causing emotional harm to their partner.


The next two lines, "siw tandel pale, ou ka wè kè'l fin degrengole," which translates to "if you hear her speak, you can see her heart crumbling," further emphasizes the emotional distress the partner is experiencing. The following line, "tout moun sèvi avèl, fè'l sa yo pat dwe fè'l," which means "everyone takes advantage of her, doing things they shouldn't do," reveals that the partner is not only suffering emotional harm from the listener's words, but also from the actions of others. The final line, "pou sa li pase, fanm sa ka touche kè lisifè," which translates to "because of what she's going through, this woman touches the heart of a lover," infers that the partner may look for comfort and affection from someone else due to the stress caused by the listener's actions and words.
