Maumere da gale kota Ende
Pepin gisong gasong
Le′le luk ele rebin ha

Maumere da gale kota Ende
Pepin gisong gasong
Le'le luk ele rebin ha
La le le luk sila sol
Mi fa mi fa sol
Le′le tiding fa fa
Rebing mude mi

Do do do do mi do mi do gemu fa mi re
Ele le... ele le...
La le le luk sila sol
Mi fa mi fa sol
Le'le tiding fa fa
Rebing mude mi
Do do do do mi do mi do gemu fa mi re (Mmm... Manis)

Maumere da gale kota Ende
Pepin gisong gasong
Le'le luk ele rebin ha

Maumere da gale kota Ende
Pepin gisong gasong
Le′le luk ele rebin ha

Putar ke kiri e...
Nona manis putarlah ke kiri
Ke kiri ke kiri ke kiri dan ke kiri ke kiri ke kiri ke kiri manis e.
Sekarang kanan e.




Nona manis putarlah ke kanan
Ke kanan ke kanan ke kanan dan ke kanan ke kanan ke kanan ke kanan manis e.

Overall Meaning

It is difficult to provide a precise interpretation of the lyrics to Christian Smith's song Ghost Chili, as they are a mix of Indonesian and made up words. However, some possible interpretations can be gathered from the context and tone of the song. The first verse repeats the lines "Maumere da gale kota Ende, Pepin gisong gasong, Le'le luk ele rebin ha" which may refer to a place and people in Indonesia. The following verses repeat the syllables "La le le luk sila sol, Mi fa mi fa sol, Le'le tiding fa fa, Rebing mude mi" and "Do do do do mi do mi do gemu fa mi re, Ele le... ele le..." which sound like nonsense words but convey a sense of rhythm and energy. The chorus adds the phrase "Nona manis putarlah ke kiri/kanan" which means "sweet lady, turn left/right" and suggests a playful and perhaps flirtatious atmosphere.


Overall, Ghost Chili seems to be a party or dance song that mixes Indonesian and Western musical elements. It features a lively beat, cheerful melody and simple lyrics that are meant to be catchy and fun rather than profound. The use of Indonesian words and phrases adds an exotic touch and reflects the global influences of contemporary music. The chorus, with its call to dance and spin around, creates a sense of community and joy that transcends language barriers.
