Lakol Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Vini an al danse yon konpa ki byen mate
An nou chante, an nou danse, pa kite tan pase
Tout moun mete deyò
pou y'al danse Lakòl
Nan kadans, bèl pawòl
nou pral kole zepòl
Sa fè depi lontan
n'ap ret tann moman sa a
Jodia nou kontan li pou nou ale
Leve pou n ale
Pa kite tan pase
Leve pou n ale
Leve, leve, leve
pou nou ale
Leve, leve, leve
pou nou ale
Aswè a w te la, nou te ka danse doudou
Ole ole

Aswè a w te la, nou te ka danse doudou
