Title: Sepik Meri
[Intro]
Down by the Sepik river where the warm winds blow,
Mi lukim wanpela meri i wokabaut isi go.
Sunlight shining on her face so bright,
Em i lait olsem moning san long ples.
[Verse 1]
From the villages of East Sepik Province she comes my way,
Skin bilong em i lait olsem moning sun
Bright eyes shining like the morning sea,
Ai bilong em i lait na i luk gut long mi.
[Pre-Chorus]
Tall and slim like a coconut tree,
Em i longpela liklik na body stret tru.
When she walks the whole world stops,
Taim em i wokabaut olgeta man i lukluk tasol.
[Chorus]
Oh Sepik meri, you shine so bright,
Olsem mun i lait long tropical night.
Skin bilong yu i glou long sunset light,
Sepik meri yu stilim lewa bilong mi stret.
Oh Sepik lady stay with me,
Yumi sindaun wantaim klostu long kokonas tri.
[Verse 2]
Hair flowing soft in the evening breeze,
Win bilong apinun i pulim gras bilong em isi.
Eyes so bright like the stars above,
Ai bilong em i lait na kirapim love.
Every step she takes I feel the beat,
Hat bilong mi i pait taim em i wok long rot.
[Bridge]
Sepik river flowing slow tonight,
Wara Sepik i ron isi long dispela nait.
Fireflies dance long moonlight,
If I had one wish that could come true,
Mi laik maritime you na stap wantaim yu for life.o
[Outro]
Down by the river where the warm winds blow,
Sepik meri i wokabaut isi go.
In my heart you will always stay,
Meri bilong Sepik yu stap long bel bilong mi oltaim.
