Yaa Ohiɛ!

1. Yaa ohiɛ, yaa ohiɛ kɛshɛ dalɛ he!

Hã anɔkwale la krɔŋŋ akpɛ ahã mɛi fɛɛ.

Bɔɔ mɔdɛŋ ni oya hiɛ yɛ sɔɔmɔ lɛŋ;

Ni Nyɔŋmɔ baajɔɔ bo daa.

Nyɔŋmɔ sɔɔlɔi fɛɛ baanyɛ ashiɛ.

Kaimɔ akɛ no nɔŋŋ Yesu tsu.

Kwɛmɔ Nyɔŋmɔ gbɛ daa ni okagbee shi,

Fi shi shiŋŋ yɛ jalɛ mli.

2. Yaa ohiɛ, yaa ohiɛ, shiɛmɔ kɛ ekãa!

Jajemɔ naanɔ sane kpakpa otsɔɔ mɛi fɛɛ.

Ni wɔshiɛ yɛ shĩa fɛɛ shĩa.

Shi wɔbaafi shi shiŋŋ; wɔgbugbaŋ.

Hã Nyɔŋmɔ mumɔ krɔŋkrɔŋ atsɔɔ bo gbɛ.

Obaaná miishɛɛ diɛŋtsɛ.

Ná suɔmɔ ohã mɛi ni boɔ toi.

Bɔɔ mɔdɛŋ oshɛ amɛtsui he.

Wa amɛ koni amɛya amɛhiɛ.

Koni la krɔŋŋ lɛ akpɛ.
