This is their best version of the song.
Such a well written arrangement
What a beautiful song...😊
This is my freshly minted metric-driven English rendition of the Tagalog classic popular folk song, “Leron Leron Sinta.” Take it for a test drive and please let me know how it rides.
(CCCXXXVIII) ~> Coquettish Caprice Reprise*
(Leron Leron Sinta)
(1)
Let's go my dear coquette,
Climb the papaya tree;
Take the wicker basket,
Go pick some fruit for me.
When you approach the top,
It sways most viciously;
Please just prevent mishap,
Cling tight most cautiously.
(2)
Love me my dear maiden,
Your most courageous knight;
Never I’d feign abstain
From any vicious fight;
With seven Scimitars,
Nine loaded guns, and Kris,
Fight my own bogus wars,
Vanquish fried noodles dish!
(3)
Wake up my precious lass,
Greet our day with your smile;
Grace us with your pizzazz,
Linger one longer while;
Grant us you entertain,
Our shadow of your dream;
Sing us your sweet refrain,
Our lost soul you’ll redeem!

*My own original locution for the title of the popular classic Tagalog folk song, “Leron Leron Sinta.” For context basis, the vernacular lyrics were audio-gleaned from the attached video clip. The third and last Octrain (double quatrain) is an original Asumen variation of the lyrics.
this is fantastic, keeps the essential rhyming and overall goofy/fun story as well!
