KÅNTA : AN UN TULAIKA



The Cruz Family singers put new lyrics and story to an old melody, Eskatmina Silensio na Puenge. Another song about false love, false expectations, false dreams.




An un tulaika i hinasso-mo
(If you change your mind)
ya åhe' ti para un dingo yo'
(and no, you will not leave me)
nene nå'e 'u mågi ni guinaiya-mo
(baby give me your love)
ya un dalak yo' para iya håme.
(and come with me to our place.)

Hu nå'e hao alahås-mo
(I gave you jewelry)
ai yan salappe'-mo
(and money)
lao ti este ha' siña bai hu cho'guiye hao.
(but these aren't the only things I can do for you.)
Nene nå'e 'u mågi ni guinaiya-mo
(Baby give me your love)
ya un dalak yo' para iya håme.
(and come with me to our place.)

Pues pine'lo-ko na ti dåkon i guinife
(So I thought that dreams don't lie)
sa' tåya' na hu susede taiguine
(because I never went through this)
i para un pångon yo' gi maigo'-ho
(that you would wake me in my sleep)
sa' malago' yo' bai kuentuse.
(because I want to talk.)

Gi annai makmåta hao un oga'an sen tåftaf
(When you woke up one morning very early)
ya hu hahasso i guinifi-ho
(and I remembered my dream)
pues pine'lo-ko na magåhet na gaige
(so I thought that it was true)
si nene nai gi fion-ho.
(that baby was by my side.)

I ha ofrese 'u na palåbras gi kattå-ña
(The words she offered me in her letter)
ha na' sen pinite korason-ho
(really hurt my heart)
sa' ha ofrese 'u na para bai in assagua
(because she proposed that we be married)
lao mandagi eyo na kontråta.
(but it was a false agreement.)

Pues pine'lo-ko na ti dåkon i guinife
(So I thought that dreams don't lie)
sa' tåya' na hu susede taiguine
(because I never went through this)
i para un pångon yo' gi maigo'-ho
(that you would wake me in my sleep)
sa' malago' yo' bai kuentuse.
(because I want to talk.)
