Minoi,
Minoi Aue!
La'u lupe, lupe, |
Move,
Move Move, move, move like an ant Swaying when you dance, Dipping into rich coconut cream, As sweet as banana pudding. Ah, my pigeon, (my dearest) Crying out to me! I hope we can keep on like this, Keep on being sweethearts, So move, move! Move, move, Move my darling. |
