Great site! I thought the last chorus of Jeze Renmen Mwen was (PHONETICALLY) sapa fem ah ye la, si sata li em way ( I don't know how to spell it properly in Kreyole) Please set me straight. Thanks, Dawn
Hey Dawn, Here it is :)
1. Ala m kontan, Jezi renmen mwen (3 fwa)
Glwa Alelouya! Jezi renmen mwen.
Glwa Alelouya! Jezi renmen mwen.
2. Sa pa fè m anyen la, si satan rayi mwen (3 fwa)
Glwa Alelouya! Jezi renmen mwen.
Glwa Alelouya! Jezi renmen mwen.
3. Sote! ponpe! Jezi renmen mwen (3 fwa)
Glwa Alelouya! Jezi renmen mwen.
Glwa Alelouya! Jezi renmen mwen.
Verse 2 has another slightly different version:
2. Sa pa fè m anyen si satan rayi mwen (3 fwa)
Glwa Alelouya! Jezi renmen mwen
Glwa Alelouya! Jezi renmen mwen
YOUN ak LÒT → each other, one another

Listen to the beautiful Creole Lyrics of this song :)
Tout lanmou sa by Genesis for Him
Lyrics:
Dèfwa mwen leve lè maten
Mwen di m’a gen tan priye
E lè mwen retounen leswa
Mwen di m twò fatige
Men sa mwen pa wè, etan m’ap mache
Se zanj ou, ou voye
Pou gide pa mwen, pou m pa tonbe
Ala m pa merite.
Tout lanmou sa a
Tout lanmou sa a
Ou gen pou mwen
Mwen pap janm ka konprann
Pouki ou renmen m.
Dèfwa ou chita nan yon kwen katye
Dèfwa ou chita nan yon kwen katye
Ou mande m degouden
Mwen pase m gade, epi
m’ale
Avèk pòch mwen byen plen
Men sa mwen bliye
Ke se ou k’ ban mwen
tout sa mwen posede
Mwen pa vle peye dim ak ofrann
Ala m pa merite
Si ou te egoyis
Si ou te egoyis
Menm jan avèm
Mwen ta gen tan mouri
Pou bagay ke mwen konnen mwen fè
Ak tout sa w’asepte
Malgre tout
inikite mwen yo
Ak tout sa m
renmen
M’ap di ou
mèsi pou chak jou
Ou toujou
padone m.
Mwen vle chanje pou m ka merite
Mwen vle chanje pou m ka merite
Tout lanmou
sa ke ou gen pou mwen
