Ditado

The old lady taught me who fights for victory
Victory is certain, the path is right
Every morning the rooster crows
I see people giving up on the road of life

If one day you lie to me that there are no hardworking people
Then talk about rallies, don't talk about cats
If money is sacred, then call me a little saint
Mama oh oh, papa oh oh
Ié Zamb, i zambi iami, tuta lene papa oh, tuta lendé
Aiué zambi, zambi iami, tuta lene papa oh, tuta lendé

It's hard papa
When I see sadness in the innocent eyes of a child
Early in the morning when the rooster crows
But it's even harder mama
When I wake up early to support my children
Because no one else will give
Na na

A smile that turned into sadness on the face of that boy
Pastor who changed church, mama oh oh
Cassula gave her skirt to support everyone at home
The elder no longer plays with the knife

In a couple's fight, brother don't get involved there

If one day you lie to me that there are no hardworking people
Don't talk about rallies, don't talk about cats
If money is sacred, then call me a little saint
Mama oh oh, papa oh oh
Ié Zambi zambi iami, tuta lene papa oh, tuta lendé
Aiué zambi, zambi iami, tuta lene papa oh, tuta lendé

Wow mama oh
Her life goes by, but wealth is not in sight
Hardworking mama wants food on the table
If there is no success after studies
Then why all this, then why all this
When the neighbor interferes, it's just to envy
She just wants to dream
Canuca who just wants to depend on the man
Wants a ticket to travel
Daughter talk to me, talk to me wow

Ié Zambi zambi iami, tuta lene papa oh, tuta lendé
Aiué zambi, zambi iami, tuta lene papa oh, tuta lendé
Hmmm zambi iami
