EFɔ TɔGMASE
Efo togmase ela ma.
Mee suwe ekama pe nna
M maa ji a gelge bewura,
Maa ji a gelge bebolpo
M maa ŋana damawuraana.
Loŋ nɛ m maa shu betirpo kuwor
Bumo kike wɔ ma enɔto nna
M mee yuu bumo nna ma kepar
Eko maŋ kɔ ma yiko.
Efo togmase ela ma
M maa kala a ba.
Ma alɛ suwe fo pe
Kagbenejajɛ nɛ n kre a bra fo.
Anishichubi e naa wɔtɔ ma keta eleŋ
M maa wu bomin kuwor
Mobe kushu e naa fuli ma kagbene.
Efɔ tɔgmase ela ma
M maŋ sha eko n kishi eko.
M maa suwe ekama pe
M baŋ luri fobe laŋto.
Wolwol nna fanɛ edɛ ka bee ji
Nɛ ekama e buu kagbenejajɛ be wajɛ.
Ma ela efɛ tɔgmase.
Ma e naa tɔrɔ bomin
Ma so nɛ bomin maa puchi a luwe.
Efɔ tɔgmase e la ma
Efɔ kama maŋ fo ma so.
