Verse 1
Kenbe'm kenbe'm, Ou se Anj gadyen'm
Hold me, hold me. You are my guardian angel.
Pwoteje'm, vlope'm, Ou se tout pou mwen.
Protect me. Wrap me. You are everything to me.
Pa lage'm
Don't let me go.
Lè mwen nan fè nwa
When I'm in the dark.
Pa abandone'm
Don't abandon me.
Sere mwen nan bra'w
Hold me in your arms.
Chorus
Ohhh
Ohhh
Ohhh Pa lage'm
Ohhh don't let me go
Ohhh
Ohhh
Ohhh
Ohhh
Verse 2
Chofe'm, chofe'm anba zèl ou yo
Warm me. Warm me under your wings.
Konsole'm, leve'm, pote'm sou do'w
Comfort me. Lift me. Carry me on your back.
Lè chemen an twò long pou mwen
When the road is too long for me.
Wa va gidem
You will guide me.
Poze men'w sou mwen
Place your hand on me.

Kè mwen pou ou'l ye
My heart belongs to you.
Pou ou'l ye
It's all for you.
No no no oh no
No no no, oh no.
Paka jamè vire do ba'w
I could never turn my back on you.
Kouraj mwen pou ou'l ye
My courage is for you.
Espwa mwen sou ou'l ye
My hope is in you.
Love mwen pou ou'l ye
My love is for you.
