(Ah) It Mek, Desmond Dekker

IT MEK
You think I never see you when you jump over de wall
You think I never see you when you accidently fall
me said a it mek - mek you pop yu bitta gall
a it mek - while you accidently fall
a it mek - hear she crying fe ice water
aah -aah- aah
I check you out and you're cold, girl
I dig you out and you're cold, girl
rock it to me children
I told you once and I told you twice
Wha' sweet nanny goat a go run him belly good
me said a it mek - mek your pop yu bitta gall
a it mek - while you accidently fall
a it mek - hear she crying fe ice water

NOTE:"mek your pop yu bitta gall" means "you broke your bitter gall"
and: "Wha' sweet nanny goat a go run him belly good" means "who cant hear will feel/the same thing that sweet you will sour you".

TRAD (+ o - per JGVA):

I A MI QUÈ

Et creus que mai no et veig quan saltes la paret
Et creus que mai no et veig quan et fas mal accidentalment
I em dius
i a mi què – tota plena de llagues
i a mí que – quan caus accidentalment
i a mi que – la sento plorar i demanar gel
aah -aah- aah
Ho comprovo i ets freda, nena
Miro el teu interior i ets freda, nena
I check you out and you're cold, girl
I dig you out and you're cold, girl
moveu-vos canalla
Et vaig dir un cop i t'ho vaig repetir
Nena, els sords poden sentir
i em va dir
i a mi què – tota plena de llagues
i a mi què – quan caus accidentalment
i a mi què – la sento plorar i demanar gel
