Confidence is difficult
Promise is difficult
Let’s try to be confident

People! [repeat verse]
If you buy beef on credit from the Peulhs,*
You must repay them on time
If you buy meat on credit from the butchers
You must repay them on time
If you buy fish on credit from the fishermen
You must repay them on time
If you buy an onion on credit from the Dogon,*
You must repay them on time
If you borrow money on credit from the Marka,*
You must repay them on time
If you buy clothes on credit from friends
You must repay them on time
If you buy shoes on credit from friends
You must repay them on time
If you borrow money from an organization
You must repay them on time
If you borrow money from your brothers on credit
You must repay them on time
If you couldn’t repay them on time
Don’t be shamed by the creditors
If you couldn’t repay them on time
You mustn’t quarrel endlessly with the creditors...
People!
Confidence is difficult
Promise is difficult
Let’s try to be confident
