Si Nanan-måmi

Ai despensa todos hamyo na ti la'la iyo-ku blog. Este un gof bunita na kanta ginen as the legend himself si JD Crutch.

Si nåna magåhet dångkolo na maså’pet
It is true my mother sacrificied so much

I kannai-ña ha’ pumoksai ham todu
Her hands raised us all

I gima’-måmi dumikike’
Our house was very small

Sa’ ti nahong salåppe’
Because there wasn’t enough money

Ai lao manhomlat ham todu na familia
But it was enough for the whole family

Koru:
Ai nånan-måmi gi hilo’ tåno’
Oh mom, in Heaven

Si Yu’us ma’åse’ ni todu I bidå-mu
Thank you for all that you’ve done

Atan nåna ham på’gu ni minaolek na che’cho’-mu
Look at us now and all the good work you’ve done

Ai sa’ un senguaiya i famagu’on-mu
Because you love your children so much

Ai ti manriku ham na familia
We weren’t a rich family

Didide’ ha’ gi katpeta
There was very little in our wallets

Ai lao mannahong nuebi na påchot po famboka
But it was enough to feed nine mouths

Ya I satdinas na nengkanno’
And when food was sardines

Sumenmånnge’ gi hilo’ tåno’
It was the most delicious thing in the world

Para hami ni’ gumaiya mendioka
For those of us who loved tapioca

Ripiti Koru
