Mula Mansa
Os Tubarões Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Tó di yaya que larga ce mudjer
Que larga stado di tudo raparigas
Pe fica só cu mula mansa na strada
450 e sta frontado cu moças di Praia
Bis
Ma Tó di yaya carpintero marcinero famado
Casado cu bagagi rapaz
Ma todiyaya rapaz gicante elegante
Bu ta spial e sima um galu na pulero
Por isso que es pol nomi di mangala
Ma quem que crel que ca conchel
Que cre conchel
Pa ba Macsobil
The lyrics of Os Tubaroes's song Mula Mansa is in Cape Verdean Creole and talks about a man named Tó di yaya. The first two lines of the song mean "Tó di yaya is in Santantone working/ Tó di yaya is with a woman who has left many young girls to stay with a gentle mule on the street". The lyrics portray Tó di yaya as a carpenter who is married to a young woman but is also involved with many other young girls. He is now seen with a gentle mule on the street after all the women have left him. The line "450 e sta frontado cu moças di Praia" means that Tó di yaya is now seen with the mule in the city of Praia.
The next verse talks about Tó di yaya and his reputation. He is described as a renowned carpenter and a married man with a young wife. However, he is still seen with young girls in Praia. The line "Ma todiyaya rapaz gicante elegante, Bu ta spial e sima um galu na pulero" compares Tó di yaya to a rooster in a henhouse, always surrounded by young girls. The last line of the song "Por isso que es pol nomi di mangala" means that Tó di yaya has a bad reputation with women.
