Mi saevi bainbai yu wetim long mi long wanples,
hed bilong yu em i-stapim haf long haus bilong rod ayan,
hors i-stap baek long yu, em i-saekim yu long dor.
Na olsem oltaim,
taim mi helo long yu, mi singawtim yu "Uncle",
yu tokim mi yu no gat samting.
Na taim mi sidawn long haefsaid long yu,
go haws bilong yu,
laen go awtsaid long mifela olsem tudark rivar,
na hors lait long munmun long baeksaid,
mi no hirim singawt, tasol
singawt long mifela i-stap.
Na bainbai taim fair bilong haus kamap
olsem longwe starstar
mi hirim tasol singawt bilong yu
em i-kamap na fal.
Yu singim singawt bilong yu, em i-no gat frant, i-no gat ars.
Yet mi kichim tok long singawt yu sing.
Na mi sing wantaim long yu.
Long wonam mi sing? Mi no saevi.
Na mi sing tu.
