Lura Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Fitiço ki bu tem na korpu minina
E fitiço di Funana
Fitiço ki bu tem no kurpo kriola
E fitiço ki ta fazebu brilha
Bu ta badja Coladera sabi
Pa da ku Tornu minina ê sô bo
Bu ta baja Mazurka sabi
Ma bu badju ê Funana
Ku bu Funana bu poi gerra na sala
Bu poi homis ta briga pa bo
Na roda ku mininas bu ta brinca ku bu saia
Bu pônu tuku ku ôdju na bo




Oi oi oi oi
Fitiço di Funana

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Lura's song Fitiço Di Funana speak of a magical and enchanting dance known as Funana. The first two lines suggest that Funana is like a spell or charm that is captivating and takes over the body of its participants. When the song refers to the "kurpo kriola," it is likely referring to Cape Verdean women, since kriola is a Portuguese term for someone of mixed African and Portuguese descent. The lyrics suggest that the Funana dance makes the women shine and stand out.


The song goes on to describe how the dance is typically accompanied by Coladera and Mazurka music, but it is the Funana dance that truly captures the spirit of the people. The lines "ku bu Funana bu poi gerra na sala" suggest that the energy of the dance can incite conflict, and that men are drawn to women who can dance the Funana well. The last lines of the song repeat the title phrase "Fitiço di Funana" to reinforce the idea that the dance is indeed magical, and it has a powerful hold on those who experience it.
