(Intro – Swahili)
Twende kwenye dansi, usiku ni wetu!
Cheza na sauti, usiseme hapana

(Couplet – Lingala)
Nakotambola na soni te
Motema ya bolingo ezosala fête
Mona ngai na kati ya ambiance
Tika kosala lokola yo

(Refrain – Mix)
Cheza! (Cheza!)
Zala na joie! (Zala!)
Tika kosala lokola yo
Na mitema moko, tozali kolinga

(Outro – Swahili)
Mimi na wewe, twacheza milele
Twacheka, twapiga kelele, oh!
