Quotable Lyrics:

Oh Arikẹ oh-ah (Aaarikẹẹ)
If you leave me, I might die before my time
If you leave me, I might die before the sunset shines in the morning (inu mi dun, l’ọdọrẹ oh)
Girl, before you wake up
Oh Arikẹ oh-ah (Aaarikẹẹ)
If you leave me, I might die before my time
If you leave me, I might die before the sunset shines in the morning (inu mi dun, l’ọdọrẹ oh)
Just before you wake up
