Young Women theme no hyɛ ase dɛ, “Meyɛ ɔsor awofo hɔn dɔba ɔbaa, a mowɔ awoosu krɔnkrɔn na onnyiewiei nkrabea.”² Asɛm yi wɔ nokwar tsitsir anan. Odzi kan, eyɛ dɔba ɔbaa.

Nokwar a otsĩa ebiasa wɔ Young Women theme no mbuei nsɛnsin no nye dɛ yɛwɔ “awoosu krɔnkrɔn.” Iyi yɛ hɛn nyimpa ban ne fã tsitsir. Ɔyɛ hɛn sunsum mu “su ankasa” a yenya fi hɛn ɔsor awofo hɔ¹⁶ na onnhia mbɔdzembɔ biara fi hɛn hɔ. Ɔyɛ hɛn nyimpa ban no su tsitsir, a dza yɛpɛ yɛ ada hɛnho edzi biara mpo no mfa ho.

Nokwar a otsĩa anan nye dɛ yɛwɔ “onnyiewiei nkrabea.” Wɔremmfa dɛm nkrabea yi nnhyɛ hɛn do. Owu ekyir no, yebenya dza yɛafata na “yeenya enyigye [nko] wɔ dza yeenya ho pɛ dɛ yebenya.¹⁷ Yerenya hɛn onnyiewiei nkrabea gyina hɛn nsanmuyi do. Ohia yɛreyɛ ahyɛmudzi krɔnkrɔn horow na yerisie.

Mohwehwɛ mankasa me nyikyerɛ na me dze dzi dwuma na masom binom wɔ Ne dzin krɔnkrɔn mu.

Young Women theme no kɔ do dɛ, “Mibegyina dɛ Nyankopɔn ne dasefo wɔ mber nyina na wɔ ndzɛmba nyina mu na wɔ mbea ahorow nyina.” Wohia Asɔrmba nyina dɛ Nyankopɔn adasefo,²⁴ ɔwɔ mu dɛ Duebienfo na Eduosuonfo no wɔhyɛ hɔn dɛ adasefo soronko wɔ Christ ne dzin mu.²⁵ Susu hockey agordzi akansi a nyia ɔda goal no nko na ɔbɔ goal no ho ban.

Osian Agyenkwa no werdam afɔrbɔ no ntsi, yebotum enu hɛn ho, esũa efi hɛn mfom horow ho, na yɛmma ommbua hɛn fɔ. President Russell M.
