This is a Lingala version of the popular and well-known Christmas carol, Silent Night, which was originally written in German.
Butú pi! Kámwáni!
Báns'o nsé, yokani.
Bánzelú bakokít' áw'o nsé;
mpé bayeí kobosangela 'te:
«Mwǎna Yézu ayeí,
Mwǎna Yézu ayeí.»
Butú pi! Kámwáni!
Nzámbe mei, yebani!
Nkembw' aye ekosúkaka tɛ́
mpé apusí kolinga ba nsé.
Mwǎna Yézu ayeí;
Mwǎna Yézu ayeí.
Butú pi! Kámwáni!
Maria, táláni!
Akokúmisa mwǎna wa yé,
amoyebi mobíkisi mei
Yézu, Nzámbe wa yé,
Yézu, Nzámbe wa yé.
Butú pi! Kámwáni!
Zábolo, kim'esi!
Ngondo abótí Mokónzi wa yɔ̌,
Ngondo abótí mokongo wa yɔ̌.
Yézu Nzámbe ayeí,
Yézu Nzámbe ayeí.
Butú pi! Kámwáni!
Mwǎn'óyo, memyani;
akotánda mabɔ́kɔ ma yé
yamba lɛlɔ́ bolingo bwa yé
Yé mobíkisi ayeí,
Yé mobíkisi ayeí.
