Molongi Mobikisi.
Na ndimi kosala mosala; nakoma moto nao... Simba nga aah Nzambé ngaï moko na ko koka te.
Motema aa eponi seyo, lisekwa ya baye ba kufa. Na ndimi ii kozala nayo, moninga
Na nga ya sika.
Motuya na ngaï seyo oh, nakoma moto
Monene. Na mipesi mobimba na ngaï
Nzela na zali ko kende eto ndisami na mabaku mingi.
Ya Yezu na ngaï, koooo tika ngaï te nako kweya Nzambe. Ekimelo eza se moko, se moko, se kombo na yo ohhhh.
Na yebi motema na ngaï yeeeiie
Yemba motema ah oh motema ngaï
Motema na ngaï, na ponio moninga
Na nga moninga malamu, moninga malamu seyo, seyo ahnnn.
Motema na nga heee
Ahnnnn ahnnn seyoooo
Seyo, seyo masiya na ngaï
Opesi nga libala oko pesa pe bana
Nzambé oh... Obandaka mosala osilisaka yango p'ozali Nzambe, seyoooo.
Nako simba yo(2) lokola sonzo nako tika yo te... Lelo soki na seki esengo na motema na nga yo nd'opesi nga kimia ya motema. Na bengaka yo consolation
Nkombo ebongi yo malamu consolation.
Seyo seyo masiya
Ahhhh ahhhh seyo ooo

The singer then proclaims that their heart belongs to God alone, and that they are on fire for Him. The phrase "Simba nga aah Nzambé ngaï moko na ko koka te" can be translated as "My heart is burning for you, Lord, and I cannot contain it." The second verse speaks of the singer's love for God's ways and the joy of being in His presence. The phrase "Na yebi motema na ngaï" means "I know my heart." The chorus repeats the phrase "Motema na ngaï," emphasizing the singer's love for God.

Le coeur
Je crois en toi comme seigneur et sauveur,
Je veux te servir et devenir ton esclave, tiens moi par la main, seul je suis incapable.
Ref:
Mon cœur n'a choisi que toi, toi la résurrection de ceux qui sont morts, je veux marcher avec toi, toi mon nouvel ami, ma valeur se trouve en toi afin que je devienne Grand,
Je me livre totalement à toi, je sais que tu ne m'abandonneras jamais.
Le sentier que j'emprunte est parsemé d'embûches,
Mon Jésus, ne m'abandonne pas au risque de tomber.
Il y a qu'une seul refuge qui est ton nom.
