Love Me Not, ooh dear son of Maa
My head and heart hard as the horns
My neck long as The Kilimanjaro’s giraffes
Though I said never that I love you not
My style won’t be admirable on our wedding day
So please marry Me not.

Carry me not to your father’s chambers
Pay my dowry not with a herd of cattle
Marry Me Not ooh son of Maa.
My mind and my legs will settle Not.
So just marry me Not.

They have rebuked me for these looks
They said my complexion does not fit yours
That my legs are long and too thin
They claim I cannot dance for you.
So please just marry me not.
