E zumba lariulà E zumba lariulà E zumba lariulà ….trallalàrallallaralallà
Oh Nedda I love you so won’t you kiss me [fo li fo li fo la]
We’re going to be married, won’t you kiss me? [fo li fo li fo la]
Oh Nedda I love you so won’t you kiss me [fo li fo li fo la]
We’re going to be married, won’t you kiss me? [fo li fo li fo la]

 

Oh Turiddu I love you but though we’re going to be married
I won’t kiss you I won’t kiss you and my parents they agree
