Green leaf of 'siminoc',¹
Keep the circle in place,
One more time,boys,
Hop-and-so-and so.
Keep it like that, lads,
Until my darling² catch up to me,
One more time,boys,
Hop-and-so-and so.
Stregthen it (fasten it) just a little,
She is close to catch me up,
One more time,boys,
Hop-and-so-and so.
Fasten it one more step,
she caught me up, but didn't stay,
One more time,boys,
Hop-and-so-and so.
Two straws, two grains,
Let's stomp³ the Ciuleandra,
One more time,boys,
Hop-and-so-and so.
Keep it like that, don't let it down,
'Cause i'm on same step with my darling,
One more time,boys,
Hop-and-so-and so.
Two straws, two grains,
Stomp the Ciuleandra now,
One more time,boys,
Hop-and-so-and so.⁴
One more time,boys,
Hop-and-so-and so.
