Lua
Princezito Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Luâ fika ku mi más um kusinha
Dexâ-m lambuxa na bo,
Limia nha korpu ku káima!

Luâ dés ki témpu na aitura
Bu limia nórti, bu limia sul
Bu limia préta, bu limia bránka, Luâ!

Luâ riba riba mutu riba,
Pa riba simbrom ku tambarinha,
Riba trópa ku nhu pádri, Luâ!

Lua nóba sima Rikardina
Más rodónda ki Putchutcha
Xeia sima petu-Sheila, Lua!

Lua, limia riba, xeia!
Xeia, lua, limia, riba!
