1. Nothing is wrong with OP knowing the correct English expression of it. 2. It's not a dialect. It's pidgin. 3. Not knowing and knowing, which is additive to knowledge? Remember knowledge is the progressive discovery of our ignorance.

Chai! I really love your mentality. By the way, the essence of communication is nothing but to relay a message in such a way that the person you are talking to can understand the message.
Magnoliaa:
And what is wrong with "nepa don bring light?" It is a 'dialect', so to speak, and the people who talk like that understand themselves.

What will knowing the "correct English" do?

The English language is not our thoughts, so you can't translate it literally, instead what you should do is say what white people (who gave us English) would say in such a situation. And they'll say: power is back.

We are merely participating in ready-made, second-hand thought process handed down to us through slavery and colonialism. It has no meaning except what white people mean.

We have no real touch with reality, except the few times we think in or speak our native language or Pidgin.
