Chale, listen to the rhythm of my heart
It’s only beating for you, Afia
I was walking through the streets of my lonely days
Just plain rice, lost in a simple haze
Then you walked in, a seasoning so fine
Turning my water into the sweetest wine
Life was steady, but it needed a spark
You are the light that glows in the dark
You are the jollof in my world of plain rice
Everything you do, girl, it’s looking so nice
They call you Afia, but you’re more than a name
You’re the only person who can fan my flame
My world, my happiness, my treasure so true
I’m lost in the rhythm of loving you
People talk, they say I’m acting brand new
But wonim? They don’t see what I see in you
It’s the way you smile, the way you walk by
You are the wings that help my spirit fly
Eii, my heart is dancing to this palm-wine groove
And every single step is a romantic move
You are the jollof in my world of plain rice
Everything you do, girl, it’s looking so nice
They call you Afia, but you’re more than a name
You’re the only person who can fan my flame
My world, my happiness, my treasure so true
I’m lost in the rhythm of loving you
No more plain days, you gave me the spice
Chop life with me, girl, at any price
Oyiwa, let the horns play soft and sweet
You are the reason my life is complete
From Accra sun to the evening breeze
You put my worried heart at complete ease
I love you so much, it’s plain to see
Afia, you are the only one for me
Keep me steady, hold my hand so tight
We’ll dance forever into the morning light
You are the jollof in my world of plain rice
Everything you do, girl, it’s looking so nice
They call you Afia, but you’re more than a name
You’re the only person who can fan my flame
My world, my happiness, my treasure so true
I’m lost in the rhythm of loving you
Yeah, you are my world, Afia
Just you and me, the perfect blend
Chale, it’s love for real
Oyiwa, my world is you.
