Orege.
Pakruok.

Obuya kia kelo chandruok,
Ng’ato kar kwalo jarachar to bukre kwalo jarateng’,
Package kara oting’o surwach dhako.
Imoso Okang’o osiepni, mano Izo
Dhako machwe omondo wuok ka wuo,
Odwogo dicho goye to ywak,
Igoya ta dwogo, igoya ta dwogo,
Dichwo to wacho ni mond Uyoma ki go to ok duong ga.
Mano Eddy osiepna, otoyo ok ter nindo ibucha,
Jothumbe moko ochayo ji.
Imoso Nick Abonyo guok jarao makata dhi mabor,
Nyaka orawiye ni ang’o matimre kaye.
Mano Diana Abok…
Diana Abok jatelo, jatelo madhako ipinjo George osiepne.
Olang,’ chieth nyuol chwo.
Mano mwalimu, mano wuod Ugenya, Wuod Ugenya Aboke.
Jadhako opodho e pi mano Ooko kuma lum otwiye jamitu kata dhiang’ ohero mana lum.
Aduokoni erokamano mwalimu Nyamungu imiyo atimo gima atimoni.
Ichako imosna Radido momo lor gi pi, momo go bubububu pi be goyo bubububu.
Ma an Rapasa Adwi Nyatrapasa.

Mano kasuku osiepna,

Openjo watoto''nini maana ya tupa?''
Mariano chung’ malo to nyiso mwalimu, mwalimu tupa ok ipiango go beti kendo tupa ipiango go Le.

Orege.
Chants.

Obuya not knowing can cause problems,
Someone instead of stealing a white man, steals a black man instead,
The package actually contains a woman’s underwear.
Greetings to your friend, that’s Izo,

A fat woman leaves her man’s house early,
She comes back, her man beats her up and she cries,
“I’m back yet you still beat me up, I’m back yet you still beat me up”
But the man says women from Uyoma when beaten up don’t come back.
That’s Eddy my friend, hyenas are not taken to sleep in the butchery,
Some musicians lack respect.

Greetings to Nick Abonyo, a dog always passes by even when it’s going far,
It has to pass by to check on what’s going on here.
That’s Diana Abok.
Diana Abok the leader, the woman leader, ask George her friend,
Olang. Shitting, the men’s way of giving birth.

That’s Mwalimu(teacher), son of Ugenya, son of Ugenya Aboke.
A married man has fallen in the water where the sweet grass grows. That’s Ooko.
Even cows love grass.
I give thanks to you mwalimu (teacher) Nyamungu, it’s because of you that I am doing what I am doing now.
And again pass my greetings to Radido, the deaf man is drowning, he’s trying to talk bububububu, and the water too sounds bubububu…
This is me, Rapasa Adwi (enemy) Nyatrapasa.

That’s Kasuku(parrot) my friend’
Kasuku the teacher enters class,
He asks the pupils, “nini maana ya tupa?”(what’s the meaning of tupa-file)
Mariano gets up and answers the teacher, “teacher, we use tupa to sharpen the machete and we also use it to sharpen the axe”.

Lets go,
I want to Surprise* Orege,
Orege son of Seme,
Orege son of Atieno.

It's an amazing world when I sing about Orege,
Its an amazing world as I sing about Orege,
Its amazing as I sing about Orege,
I am singing about the man who has no issues about money.
Orege, someone I respect,
I am singing about he who has no issues about money,
Orege, someone I respect,

Son of Big Emma’s clan, Auma and Pamela,
Ouma with big eyeballs,
That is the son of a teacher.

I will sing for Onyango- a married sister sleeps snoring,

Its an amazing world as I sing about Orege,
Its an amazing world as I sing about Orege,

I start at Hilton, Otieno, and there I perform,
I start at Hilton, Were, and there I perform,
I start at the Carnivore, Otieno, and there I perform,
I start at the Carnivore, Were, and there I perform .

You send my greetings to Ogana, that’s a man who colour has captured,
The music today has carried me away with many men,
I am with Okite here in the house of catching the voice also representing,
That’s the father of Kamila,
I am in the house together with his mother,
His mother tells me- Otieno,
“Luo is a sweet language, if you forget anything just keep saying-Bwana,Rabet, Rateng, Sibuor_Lion”.
Lets Go.

That’s Orege, Orege friend of Kibi Kibi…..
The wild cat that catches only clean chicken,
Friend of Sungu, Sungu who cheated me….., I wonder,
And again say hello to Bakulutu, Omondi together with Juma,
Bakulutu friend of Pengele, Pengele also called ‘jembe ya shamba’

Let’s go.

It’s an amazing world as I sing about Orege,
It’s an amazing world as I sing about Orege,
I am singing about the man who has no issues with money,
Orege, this man I respect.
I am singing about the man who has no Issues with money,
Orege, this man I respect.
Son of Big Emma’s clan, Auma and Pamella,
Auma with Big eyeballs.
That’s son of a teacher,

I sing for Onyango- a married sister sleeps while snoring,
I sing for Onyango- a married sister sleeps while snoring,
That’s Orege my friend,
I’m reaching out to you through music my friend,
That’s why I remember Radido,
Radido son of Ndenga,
The tree does not complain, even if you sharpen the machete, it stays quiet.
Even if you sharpen the axe, it stays quiet.
I am hanging out well with you elder.

I am hanging out with you in Ngumo, …then you decide to bring the music all the way to Ugenya,

I’m playing music while my brother’s wife cries,
“DJ weka_Put - DJ weka _Put”
I give you thanks Radido,

Orege my friend, I must now end the music father, we shall meet again,
Thank you.

He_he_he_he.

The end!!!
