Is it taboo for old men to have fun?  metaa mete se, mmaayewa na wogye wani  I often hear that girls do have fun  nanso wose sen, mmerewa yenya bia ennye  say what? Is it taboo for old women to have fun?  Akokora, mese twiakae, mente gyae  Old man, I say no way I won’t budge, 3x  Maberewa, nso akase onfui ta  My old woman says she won’t budge either.  Nkokora ne mmerewa moma yengye yani  Come, oldsters, and let’s have fun,  odwan bewu nase onnwu a yennfre no odwan funu 2x  It’s not over till it’s over.  Nkokora ne mmerewa moma yengye yani  Come, oldsters, and let’s have fun.  Metaa mete se, mmrantee na wogye wani  I often hear that boys do have fun  nanso wose sen, nkokoraa yenya bia a ennye  say what?
