Hold yuh

Hoy vamos a ver algo diferente dentro de la amplia gama de English accents. Primero, me gustaría que escuchaseis esta canción:


Se titula Hold Yuh y la canta un famoso cantante jamaicano llamado Gyptian (existe también una versión en español). Como podéis comprobar, aunque sea inglés, pertenece a otra de las muchas variedades que existen, el English from Jamaica. Tiene vocabulario y estructuras gramaticales totalmente diferentes a las que podríamos encontrar en una canción en inglés estándar.
Os paso la letra en inglés jamaicano y en inglés estándar para que podáis apreciar las diferencias que hay entre ambas. Espero que os guste y os haya llamado la atención tanto como a mí!

Jamaican version:

Gyal mi wann fi hold yuhPut mi arms right around yuhGyal you give me the tightest hold me eva get inna my life
Gyal mi wann fi just squeeze yuhhPut mi tings all around yuhGyal yuh give me tightest hold me eva get inna mi life mmmm
Mi eye dem dry and mi nuh careMi tek it anytime, anywhereInna di squareSeh mi nuh fareAnd as a woman I will be dere
Me wanna gyal who cyan wine pon miMe want a gyal who cyan tek care a miWho cyan feel ittAnd mek mi feel ittMe afi really squeeze it
Gyal me wann fi hold yuhPut me arms right arounddd yuhGyal you give me the tightest hold me eva get inna my life
Gyal me juss wann fi squeeze yuhPut me tings all around yuhGyal yuh give me tightest hold me eva get inna mi life
Like a fast bike pon di road rooom rooom rooom rooomGyal pan di back and she boom boom boom boomGime di mawga one aand the fat coom coom coom coomMe na play ass one time iya coom coom coom coom
Mi out a controlA more fire shi want inna har soulShi seh more boy more, and stil she groanAn still mi mutilpy more
Gyal me wann fi juss hold yuhhPut me arms right arounddd yuhGyal yuh give me the tightest hold me eva get inna my life

Into the spare, so we don’t care,
