Take 1. This is cheating you know. It's take 5. (laughing)
This is an Ashanti proverb in Ghana, which says
"Fefe naa efe inti na, o ba tu le ka
O so ne nu fu na yese
Ebeti a to nti"
Which means
"It is because of the beauty
That is why a woman holds her breast when she runs
Not because the breast is going to fall."
[Chorus]
Fefe naa efe inti na, o ba tu le ka
O so ne nu fu na yese
Ebeti a to nti
(Ebeti a to nti)
Ebeti a to nti
(Ebeti a to nti)
Ebeti a to nti
(Ebeti a to nti)
[Verse]
Na fine, him fine
When woman dey hold him breast
When she dey run
No be say the breasts go fall for ground
(No be say the breasts go fall for ground)
No be say the breasts go fall for ground
(No be say the breasts go fall for ground)

When I no answer you
When you open your mouth for me
No be say your mouth be past my own
(No be say your mouth be past my own)
No be say your mouth be past my own
(No be say your mouth be past my own)
No be say your mouth be past my own
(No be say your mouth be past my own)
