Ariko aho bigeze nshaka kuvuga te amo
Will you believe me now
Tutu tu yo chili natuona holo nakuwuza tini kukonda sumani bilieva baby
Te amo, oh baby,
Te amo, oh baby
Te amo, nshaka kuvuga te amo
Will you believe me now
Kokoko mutima hodi so nalembe butambalali
Ilinachikongi mambi love yako, mami
And I keep on telling, I keep on telling you, oh you girl I me in love v you,
That I am in love, I am in love with you, oh you yeah!
Just I tell him to hear my prays, eh,
If you really don't care im tell you this one time that I love you, that I love you.
Baby navuze za "je taime", mvuga nakupenda
Ariko aho bigeze nshaka kuvuga te amo
Will you believe me now
Tutu tu yo chili natuona holo nakuwuza tini kukonda sumani bilieva baby
Te amo, oh baby,
Te amo, oh baby
Te amo, nshaka kuvuga te amo
Will you believe me now
Hallo ese baby uranyumva
Ibyo mvuga cyagwa se mpindure ururimi
Ijoro, amanywa mpora nkubwira ko ngukunda
Nabona utambyumva nkababara
Niba unyumva ngaho binyereke
Unsubize ugira uti te amo
Baby navuze za "je taime", mvuga nakupenda
Ariko aho bigeze nshaka kuvuga te amo
