Mama Aoko.

Joka nera… ok unena Mama.
Joka waya… ok unena Baba.

Pamba oluoro chilo…pod aheri.
Pamba oluoro chilo…pod adwari.
Pamba oluoro chilo…pod agombi.
Pamba oluoro chilo…pod amanyi.

Joka nera… ok unena Mama.
Joka waya… ok unena Baba.
Joka waya…yie unena Baba.
Joka olale…dak unena Mama.
Joka olale…ok unena Mama.
Joka Apondi… yaye un unena Baba
Joka Olale… nyithiwa unena Baba.
