"A de true wine, an me Fada de one wa tek cyah ob de gyaaden. Ebry wine branch wa been jine ta me bot e ain beah no fruit, me Fada cut um off. An ebry branch wa da beah fruit, e da trim um back so dat branch kin beah mo fruit. De wod wa A done tell oona done mek oona haat clean. Oona mus stay one wid me all de time, an A gwine stay one wid oona. De wine branch wa stay ta esef an ain jine ta de wine, dat branch ain able fa beah no fruit. E haffa be jine ta de wine fa beah fruit. Same way so, oona cyahn do nottin fa God cep oona stay one wid me all de time.
“A de wine. Oona de branch dem. Whosoneba stay jine ta me all de time, e gwine beah a heapa fruit fa me Fada. Oona cyahn do nottin ef ya ain jine ta me. Whosoneba ain stay jine ta me all de time, e same like a wine branch wa cut off ta esef. Dey shrow um way an den e dry op. Dey gwine geda dem dead branch an chunk um eenta de fire, weh dey gwine bun. Ef ya stay jine ta me an me wod stay een ya haat, ya kin aks me Fada fa wasoneba ya wahn an e gwine gim ta ya. Ef oona beah a heapa fruit fa me Fada, oona gwine show people dat oona gii glory ta um, an oona gwine show dat oona me ciple dem. A lob oona same like me Fada lob me. Now den, oona mus lib een me lob all de time. Ef ya do wa A chaage oona fa do, ya gwine lib een me lob. Same fashion, A beena do wa me Fada chaage me fa do, an A da lib een de lob ob me Fada.
“A done tell oona dis so dat oona kin lib full op wid me joy. A da chaage oona fa do dis: Oona mus lob one noda same fashion A done lob oona. Ain nobody hab no mo lob den de one wa gii e life fa de sake ob e fren dem. Oona me fren ef oona do wa A chaage oona fa do. A ain da call oona me saabant no mo, cause de saabant ain know wa e massa da do. Steada dat, A da call oona me fren, cause A done tell oona all wa me Fada done laan me. Oona ain pick me. A de One wa done pick oona, fa go an beah a heapa fruit, fruit wa gwine las. Den de Fada gwine gii oona wasoneba oona aks um fa, ef oona tek me name wen oona aks. So den, dis wa A da chaage oona fa do, ‘Oona mus lob one noda.’
