Kwasi Kwasio, I am calling-e
Kwasi Kwasio, I am calling-o
You must put an end to it.
Tye, Kwasi Kwaso, I am calling you-o
A troubled path (?) makes a path-o
There is a path in the bush,
And there is a man in the bush,
A mother is there in the house, too.
Kwasi Kwasi I am calling you-o
Kwasi Kwasi, today I call you-o.

Human-beings we see well, well,
As we go about troubling people,
You must not approach Kamadewe.
Human-beings we see well, well,
As we go about troubling people.
We must approach Kamadewe.
The wanderer sees the ghost,
The ghost sees a man is there.

The cemetery is clothed in white,
Great Yɔrka, I am calling you,
The cemetery is clothed in white-o,
Great Yɔrka, I am calling.
In the grave they put you,
'Twas not I who put you [there].
I will pay you, and put you back,
The cemetery is clothed in white-o,
Great Yɔrka, I am calling you.
But I will take you out again,
