lyrics

MOOASHIBII
Chuu yuuru ya hima yagayaa?
Ashibiiga ikani?
Kunu sanshin mutchi ichundoo
Unjoo majun utarani?
Duu chui shi utaishee sabisaakutu

Hama nkai majin ikayaa
Mura nu chu nu chaa ya muru wusa
Utaigatchii nna mooti
Angwaa taa ya tiisaaji muchi nji
Kunu yooshi ya nuu ga sura wakaranchu wuga yaa?

Mooashibii, utati mootai
mooashjibii , tiida nu agairu madin
Unu tiisaji ya wanninkai kwiigayaa?

Taachi nu hiisa sshi shina saree
Anshi ii anbee naisayaa
Usu nu niwi ssshi uti chichun
Aree nuchi gusui du yakutu
Yashiga sanshin nu utu chichiinee haneekachi ichun

Chorus

Nama hama wuti chiijuuyaa ya
Chui chui ndi abitoon yashiga
Kunu yuu ussasayaa
Naa chui bikee aran naindoo

ENGLISH

Are you free tonight? Why don’t we go have some fun?
I’ll bring this sanshin. Won’t you sing with me?
It’s lonely if I sing by myself.

Let’s go to the beach. Everyone from the village will be there.
While singing, everyone will dance, and the girls will bring their handkerchiefs.
I wonder if there’s anyone who doesn’t know.

[CHORUS:]
Mooashibii, singing and dancing.
Mooashibii, even when the sun comes up.
I wonder, will you give that handkerchief to me?

Feel the sand with your two feet, it feels so nice.
I am calmed by the smell of the sea, it heals my soul.
But when I hear the sound of the sanshin I get excited.

[chorus]

Now the plover cries, “chui, chui” on the beach.
But he’ll get happy tonight,
Because he won’t be alone anymore.

[chorus]
