Original Lyrics
Translation in Haitian creole

verse

I need love, love,
Mwen bezwen lanmou, lanmou
Ooh, ease my mind
Ooh, libere lespri m
And I need to find fine
E mwen vle jwenn lakontantman
Someone to call mine
Yon moun ki rele m pa m

chorus

My mama said "You can't hurry love
Manman m te konn di "Ou paka fè lanmou mache prese
No, you'll just have to wait"
Non, fòk ou tann
She said "Love don't come easy
Li te konn di "Lanmou pa vini fasil
But It's a game of give and take"
Men se yon jwèt ban m m ap ba w

chorus

"You can't hurry love
"Ou paka fè lanmou mache prese
No, you'll just have to wait
Non, fòk ou tann
Just trust in the good time
Jis kwè nan bon tan
No matter how long it takes"
Menm si sa pran anpil tan

verse

How many heartaches must I stand?
Konbyen kè fè mal pou m andire?
Before I find the love to let me live again
Avan m jwenn lanmou sila a pou m ka reviv ankò
Right now the only thing that keeps me hanging on
Nan moman sa sèl sa ki kenbe m
Is to feel my strength, you know it's almost gone
Se sansasyon kouraj mwen, men li prèske ale

chorus

But remember mama said "You can't hurry love
Menm sonje manman m te konn di "Ou paka fè lanmou mache prese
No, you'll just have to wait"
Non, fòk ou tann
She said "Love don't come easy
Li te konn di "Lanmou pa vini fasil
It's a game of give and take"
Se yon jwèt ban m m ap ba w"

verse

How long must I wait?
Konbyen tan pou m tann toujou?
How much more must I take?
Konbyen pou m andire toujou?
Before loneliness
Avan solitid
'Cause my heart, heart to break
'Paske kè m, pral dechire

verse

And no, I cant bear to live my life alone
Non non, M paka sipòte viv lavi m poukont mwen
I grown impatient for a lover to call my own
Mwen paka tann pou moun ki renmen m nan vin jwenn mwen
Oh when I feel that I, I can't go on
Oh lè m santi sa, m paka kontinye
You don't feel my state
Ou pa nan plas mwen

chorus

You know I'm almost gonna remember mama said
Ou konnen m prèske sonje lè manman m t ap di
"You can't hurry love
"Ou paka fè lanmou mache prese
Oh, you'll just have to wait"
Oh, fòk ou tann
She said "Love don't come easy
Li te konn di "Lanmou pa vini fasil

chorus

It's a game of give and take"
Se yon jwèt ban m m ap ba w"
"You can't hurry love
"Ou paka fè lanmou mache prese
Oh, you'll just have to wait
Oh, fòk ou tann
Just trust in the good time
Jis kwè nan bon tan

verse

No matter how long it takes", and now break
Menm si sa pran anpil tan", epi kounya f'on poze
When love, love don't come easy
Lè lanmou, lanmou pa vini fasil
I know I keep on waiting
Mwen konnen m ap kontinye tann
Anticipating for that soft voice
Imajine davans ti vwa dous sa a

verse

To talk to me at night
K ap pale avè m leswa
For some tender arms
Pou mande ti karès
Hold me tight
Sere m di
I keep waiting
M ap tann
(Ooh, till that day)
(Ooh, jiskaske jou sa rive)

chorus

But it ain't easy
Men li pa fasil
(Love don't come easy
(Lanmou pa vini fasil
No, you know it ain't easy
Non, ou konnen li pa fasil
My mama said
Manman m te konn di
"You can't hurry love
"Ou paka fè lanmou mache prese
Oh, you'll just have to wait"
Oh, fòk ou tann
She said "Love don't come easy
Li te konn di "Lanmou pa vini fasil
It's a game of give and take"
Se yon jwèt ban m m ap ba w"
"You can't hurry love
"Ou paka fè lanmou mache prese
Oh, you'll just have to wait
Oh, fòk ou tann
Just trust in the good time
Jis kwè nan bon tan
No matter how long it takes"
Menm si sa pran anpil tan
